If you carefully look at the vastness of the universe or the enormous depths
of the ocean with awareness even for a second, all your sorrows will get
dissipated; because then you will be left with no pride of being someone "great"
or "exceptional".
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Bible, Quran and Vedas have been proven wrong on many instances. It is any
day better to devote the precious human life to the cause of humanity living life
to the fullest, rather than sacrificing it on their altar.
A 'powerful person' is free to express his anger, whereas a 'weaker person' is
compelled to suppress it. Thus in the process, the powerful goes on to become
happier, and the weaker, perverted forever.
Due to faulty teachings, as we grow we begin to lose the important qualities
like self-confidence, enthusiasm, concentration, vision and foresight. Otherwise
these are the most natural qualities among children. In that case, don't you think
we need to re-evaluate our educational system?
Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?
The science of mind is completely contrary to the knowledge of the brain. At
the level of mind, as we regret doing the wrong deed, we repeatedly commit the
same act. Hence, at the level of mind, it is advisable to understand, not repent.
"Truth" is not an act done at the physical level or an act performed driven by
emotions. Truth is the outcome of that particular action. If someone has used
abusive language for your betterment, then how did he abuse you?... He has
only desired a positive change in you.
Our biggest problem is the complete contrast in the nature of brain and mind.
Majority of the people do not even realize the separate existence of the two.
As a result, their entire life gets crumbled and destroyed in the constant friction
between their brain and mind.
Just as extra energy is required to push the space shuttle out of earth's gravitation,
likewise, we also need energy above a certain limit to free the mind from the
influence of brain.
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.
