Jains insist on having their separate food counters even at others' weddings. It
is really difficult to understand, though they seem to be okay otherwise, what
problem they have in mingling with people?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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.
To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
Everyone is proud of his caste and religion. Please for once, observe yourself
and the people around you carefully - the pride will disappear by itself. And only
then, embracing the world you will be able to tread the path of progress.
If you really want to free yourself from anger, then forget all the useless things
you have learnt. The only way to get rid of anger is, whenever or on whosoever
you get angry, just keep releasing it. Do not harbour it within.
If you would genuinely be satisfied with your feelings, the certificates or opinions
of others would hold no significance for you. So much so that being true, you will
never have to justify yourself.
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
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".
In nature, there are only two focal points of energy; one, 'anger' and second,
'love'. But unfortunately, Science simply does not know how to view from the
perspective of Psychology. Here the energy is created either by the friction of
two things i.e. 'anger' or by the union of two things i.e. 'love'.
