The person who indulges in self-torturing thoughts like fasting or uprooting his
own hair is bound to perform acts that will cause pain to others. Now you say,
how can such a person who inflicts pain on others ever be happy?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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.
It is not that we sleep only at night. Our day sleep is far deeper than that. We
rarely awaken for a moment or two. Being awakened means your body, mind
and brain are functioning as per your directions.
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.
How soon you overcome each incident, good or bad happening with you reveals
how deeply you understand life?
Be it life or business, only he grows who not only stands firm wherever he is, but
also remains satisfied with it.
All your efforts at the end are nothing, but inviting pains and pleasures in life,
whereas to be steadfast in your 'being' no effort is required. The best part is,
there is only joy and happiness, not just for one but for hundreds of reasons.
No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind"
that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an
enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry
again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably
end up being angry.
What are we? We are the medium between God and the World. If I elaborate
further, then we are the screens whose only duty is to bring the producer's film
to its viewers.
