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.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The biggest reason for our failure is, we are not able to see the existence of this
world in its totality. Here, neither it is possible to fulfill the personal interests of
any individual nor of any group.
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.
In nature, no one is living with the feeling of selfishness. It is only due to our
selfish acts that our ties with nature have been severed.
Considering only your belief system to be true, you have been supporting it
firmly for ages. But why don't you understand that without taking constructive
criticism in your stride, it is impossible to tread the right path as per the need
of time. It is the law of human consciousness that the more one is open to his
own criticism, the more refined he gets. Only because of their own fanaticism,
the Muslim brothers all over the world are practically deprived of the immense
compassion of "intelligent" people.
Before leading your life depending upon God, just check, does he really have
the authority to be partial and do any good for you?
When we are leading a smooth life today depending upon the creations of
millions of people...then isn't it our duty to do something before death which can
fill the lives of future generations with joy, peace, prosperity and bliss?
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.
The decision that we have to make is, what is more important, visiting temples,
mosques, churches or eradicating negativities from the mind?
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.
