After helping someone, if you expect a gesture of gratitude from him, then there
is no point in helping. If you feel good when he expresses his gratitude, then too
helping is useless. In that case, you must understand that your help was merely
a means to satiate your ego.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
In the universe, everything has its own individual nature. No element of existence
has any confusion with regards to their nature except the intelligent human being,
who is absolutely clueless about his own nature.
Garner the strength to keep your 'freedom' intact under any circumstances and
protect your mood at any cost; then whatever may happen to anyone...you will
surely be seated on the ultimate height of joy and success.
Be it life or business - when do they reach their pinnacle? When you do something
innovative or create something new. Meaning "power of creativity" is required for
both to flourish and prosper.
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.
The Jain monks, who claim their scriptures to be more knowledgeable and
advanced than science, by walking barefoot and uprooting hair with their own
hands, which scientific age prescribed in their scriptures do they want to drive
mankind to?
It is difficult to understand as to who is stopping a person other than himself,
to live a life in utter bliss and joy. Nobody. And no one can either. It is just the
thousands of rules and fears devised by his brain...that have stopped him.
A human being is absolutely independent; therefore whatever happens to him
is completely his own responsibility. The one who holds others responsible,
repeatedly commits the same mistakes again and again.
To get enthused about something before it is achieved, always brings undesired
grievous results. To realize it, you need not go far, just reflect upon a few incidents
of your life...you will understand.
In this world, there is only one way to lead a life of truth - "either you consider
everyone dead including yourself or you treat all others at par with yourself."
