Any form of art is the manifestation of God. Whereas, in temples and churches
someone has just been instated in the name of God.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
God is dead, atleast in the sense that neither can he stop you from achieving
what you are capable of, nor can he give you anything more than what you
deserve.
In today's time, no other ''charity'' is acceptable or practical than the ''wisdom''
that can transform the human life... Meaning the knowledge which can teach a
man to climb the ladder of success.
If you wish to lead a healthy life, then till the age of forty, eat to your heart's
content and do lots of exercise. This is what our father and forefathers did. It is
we, who have recognized the fatty food and acidic food separately and as a result,
today’s youth has started eating each morsel with apprehension. Consequently,
nowadays it is the parents and elders who have to look after their children.
All the struggles of life are less dependent on circumstances and more on our
state of mind. This is the reason why "a resolute mind" is easily able to conquer
even the toughest of the problems.
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
No parallel can be drawn for human love. When an old person is spending his
time in loneliness, nobody bothers to check his well-being. But when he falls
sick, tens of people visit him in hospital and hundreds of people gather when he
dies.
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.
Our 'mind' is as old as the existence; whereas our brain is of this birth. Hence,
the thinking of mind is boundless whereas in the case of brain, it is limited. Since
there is no possibility of unanimity of action between the two, we end up living in
confusion.
