Trust me, 'you' are only a spectator who is watching the ups and downs of
everyone’s life including yours. Your problem is; you believe yourself to be the
doer.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Neither lavish living is a sin nor simple living a virtue; but pretending and portraying
other than what we are or what we have, is certainly our hypocrisy.
Things without which our life simply cannot sustain... like air, water and
gravitational force; all are equally available to everyone for free. For a man of
reason, this holds not one, but thousand implications.
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.
Why don't you simply understand that events are happening outside and your life
is within you. Then whatever happens outside, why should your life be affected
by it ? It does, because you forcibly perceive yourself being attached to it.
There are two forces strongly present in you; one, your 'witness' and second,
your 'ego'. Ego, the one who is doing the things, and witness, the one who is
watching all that happens.
In this world of infinite "Time and Space", if you could not decipher the rationale
of your 6 feet long body coming into existence for about 60 years, then whatever
you did, learnt or achieved is all useless.
Existence is governed by its own law. Here, the things impermanent by nature
are bound to meet their end. Hence, with the passage of time, not only Ravana's
Lanka but "Krishna's" Dwarka also sinks.
There is no complex in existence, it is we who have identified stones and
diamonds differently. The day you accept yourself as you are instead of trying to
change it, your complex will also disappear... I promise you, that day onwards
you will start getting attuned to nature.
All that your mind absorbs from the external world will prove to be a deterrent,
meaning it will push you back in life. Whatever your mind brings forth from within,
will only make you grow in life.
