No mind, no form, I only exist; Now ceased all will and thought. The final end of the Nature’s dance; I am it whom I have sought. A realm of bliss bare, ultimate, beyond both knower and known. A rest immense I enjoy at last; I face the one alone. I have crossed the secret ways of life; I have become the Goal. The Truth immutable is revealed; I am the way, the God-Soul. My spirit aware of all the heights, I am mute in the core of the Sun. I barter nothing with time and deeds; my cosmic play is done.

Only the person who knows how to strike a balance of mind can be happy and successful in life.

As a result, only one among millions is able to be happy and successful and that too, he who escapes their clutches.

Brain understands the things by dissecting them because all it knows is the tangible objects. But mind does not recognize the tangible objects differently; it only understands the vibrations and their intensities and depths. It is only due to our inability to establish a mutual communication between the two, that we all are total failures.

-Deep Trivedi

On the screen of your mind, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Then that reaction yields thousands of sub-reactions by itself. Therefore, think thousand times before going against your mind.

If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
