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.
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.
If you wish to experience the ego of having done something great in life, then
you will have to do away with all those small petty egos you tend to carry day in
and day out.
In life, there is nothing that you can simply gain. Here, for every gain, you always
have to lose something. Hence, the people who are apprehensive of losing in
every small matter...can never gain something big.
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.
One 'beautiful-mind' indeed weighs heavy over thousand creations of nature
and that is why from Socrates to Kabir, all hold such great importance.
How soon you overcome each incident, good or bad happening with you reveals
how deeply you understand life?
The entire past of a person is like a dustbin. Whenever one puts his hand in and
tries to take anything out, no matter what it is, it will surely stink. Similarly, all his
aspirations for future resemble the desire to fly like a bird, whenever he will try,
he is bound to fall hard and hit the ground.
In reality, what you are is not that important as "are you really what you portray
yourself to be?"
Have you ever seen classes where tigers are taught to hunt, monkeys to jump
or cows being trained to abstain from eating flesh? Then what are we being
preached and why? Do our religious heads and scriptures consider us even
worse than animals?
