Your focus is always on everything else, but you. The biggest proof is, even in
dreams, rarely any of you would have seen your own face. Indeed, it is sad that
not only in your conscious mind but even in your unconscious mind, your focus
is only on others.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Mind
It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways.
-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"
The science of mind is completely contrary to the knowledge of the brain. At
the level of mind, as we regret doing the wrong deed, we repeatedly commit the
same act. Hence, at the level of mind, it is advisable to understand, not repent.
-Deep Trivedi
Don’t let your mind bully your body into believing it must carry the burden of its worries.
-Scriptures "Astrid Alauda"
The worthy person is grateful and mindful of benefits done to him. This gratitude, this mindfulness, is congenial to the best people.
-Scriptures "Anguttara Nikaya"
'Mind' not only understands all the mysteries of existence but can also reveal
their influence, in the life of any individual of this world with the precision of a
clock... But then it is difficult to understand that instead of delving into our mind,
what sort of trivial tasks have we entangled ourselves in?
-Deep Trivedi
Slowly and steadily cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect, purify the senses, and win grace.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched
on and off at a fixed time regularly, whereas for mind, the dawn is when you
wake up. Understand this difference between man and machine and save your
life from becoming mechanical.
-Deep Trivedi
Your 'mind' is actually the sum-total of vibrations. So, it will always be beyond
the reach of science. And since you experience all your pains and pleasures
also on the screen of mind, science can never reveal the amount of pains and
miseries hidden in you or where does it come from. Neither will it ever succeed
in surgically removing those miseries from your body.
-Deep Trivedi
“Make your offering,” said the Master. “As you make it be pleased in mind. Make your mind completely calm and contented. Focus and fill the offering-mind with the giving. From this secure position you can be free from ill will.”
-Sutta Nipata "Sutta Nipata 506"
