How intelligent are you, can be known by the amount of unexpected happenings
in your life.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Nature's creation is such that whatever is worth attaining or beneficial for us, we
can get it automatically. But in the race to grab the things which are futile and
painful, we miss attaining them only.
Population can be a liability as well as an asset. If every citizen works, only then
can population be an asset. When one person earns and supports four, it is
dangerous not only for the family, but even for the country... In that case, where
is the question of fostering these pundits and sannyasins?
Isn't it funny that we never look into the lives of the great people whom we
worship, to dispel the miseries from our life and see, how much pain they have
endured in their life. The truth is, we fail to understand one simple and basic
fact that as long as there is life, there will be pain; no matter however great the
person may be... Their greatness is not in having a life without hardship but
because of their ability to remain cheerful even when surrounded by miseries.
In life, if anything "unexpected or unforeseen" happens with you or around you,
then it is nothing but the manifestation of your foolishness.
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
In majority of the problems befalling our way, there is nothing much for us to do.
Most of the time they come knocking at others' doors, prompted by fright we
unnecessarily interfere and get caught in them.
How do we even expect our life to change for the better, when the reins of our life
are in the hands of those who read our palms for 100 rupees, suggest auspicious
time for 200 rupees and sell idols for 500 rupees?
To enjoy 'what you have' is understandable; but mourning their loss has always
been beyond comprehension.
The concept of "God" has come into existence because of fear. ‘Fear’ is the
offspring of insecurity and desire... The interesting part is, you don't need either
of these after death.
