In Jain scriptures, the only complete man in the history of the world "Krishna"
is also placed in hell. To the extent that even Buddha, who has enlightened the
whole world has been mentioned by the Jain monks as the one initiated by
"Mahavira". Isn't it the height of their insecurity and inferiority?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Time is powerful and has millions of facets to it. Only the one who understands
and discerns every facet of time can lead a happy and prosperous life.
Since you are born a human being, it is good to have fancies for life and fulfill
them. It will surely broaden your mind. But at the level of consciousness, you must
harness just one big 'aim'. Buddha, Jesus, Edison, Bill Gates, Shakespeare...all
are the result of 'singular orientation' at the level of consciousness.
An auspicious time is not something to be looked for in calendars or panchangs.
The moment when time, opportunity, circumstances and conditions fall in place,
that becomes an auspicious time. It is as simple as "Once the bride and groom
are ready, what is the need for a pastor!"
If you mould yourself according to time and let yourself flow with the changing
circumstances, see, what you will soon transform into.
The religious scriptures are thousands of years old. Don't know since when
they have been engaged in the upliftment of mankind. But still, considering the
enormity of the pains and problems of human beings, they have been proved
miserable failures. Now, it is high time...that new ways of thinking be adopted.
Are we Hindu and Indian? Christian and American?... Or a unique human being
born on this earth? The choice that you make here will decide the path of your
life.
If any achievement of your life goes to your head and you are gripped by ego...
then understand that you have reached your limit to grow. Now there can be only
one way to go and that is downwards.
The man who claims himself to be super intelligent gives thousands of opinions
on others and various subjects as if no other person is more intelligent than him;
but ask him about the 'sleep' in which he spends one-third of his lifetime and he
is clueless... Isn't it ironical?
The kind and quantum of what you possess is not the proof of your being rich...
but yes, what and how much you still want to attain surely reveals how poor you
are.
