Without knowing your own mind, no success can be achieved in life. But to
understand the mind, neither books nor teachings are available. This is the sole
reason for such a miserable failure of human beings.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Considering only your belief system to be true, you have been supporting it
firmly for ages. But why don't you understand that without taking constructive
criticism in your stride, it is impossible to tread the right path as per the need
of time. It is the law of human consciousness that the more one is open to his
own criticism, the more refined he gets. Only because of their own fanaticism,
the Muslim brothers all over the world are practically deprived of the immense
compassion of "intelligent" people.
To enjoy 'what you have' is understandable; but mourning their loss has always
been beyond comprehension.
How profound is your religious depth can be assessed from the number of
assurances and blessings you still need for your life.
There is nothing more "deceitful" than ego in this world. If you want to see,
carefully observe the people who unnecessarily show high moral, talk ethics,
visit temples or strictly follow rituals. Their entire being reverberates ego, yet
they are unaware of it.
Nature has not bestowed any such power to a human being that allows him to
give permanent happiness to anyone. For that, a person has to work hard and
put in efforts himself.
If you would genuinely be satisfied with your feelings, the certificates or opinions
of others would hold no significance for you. So much so that being true, you will
never have to justify yourself.
If you are dissatisfied or unhappy with any of your act or thinking, then too don't
try to change it, you will fail miserably. Transform your nature, your action and
thinking will change by themselves.
Ego simply doesn't know how to strike a balance. Either it stays immersed in the
worldly matters or getting distressed, takes 'sanyas' - renounce the world... But
to lead a normal life while being mentally detached from the world is something
that it just does not know.
Hindu religion has accepted the ones, wearing necklaces of human skulls, having
wine and opium, and even dance-lovers as their gods. Because Hindu religion
does not believe in abstinence of things but rather, teaching how to have them
in moderation and in the right manner.
