Neither the ones who have created enormous wealth under the shade of religion,
nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Hindu religion, where all gods are "kings" meaning the ones who look after the
interests of their subjects; how can that religion consider those who build palatial
ashrams from others donations, as religious?
Our mind is full of amazing powers but simultaneously, it has numerous disorders
and negativities too. Because we are unable to conquer the negativities, we
miss out on its marvellous powers as well.
What are the traits of an awakened person? First, his comings and goings are
only as per his wish. Second, no reason of the outside world can influence him
and third, whatever he is once determined to do, he breathes only when it is
brought to fruition.
Can't you keep the soil of your mind firm? Yes you can, if you shift your focus
from the pains and pleasures of life to your "being" and keep it steadfast there.
Hindus have accepted only them as their gods who destroyed the evildoers. Why
don't we also straighten "those" who are busy spreading their web of ashrams
with our hard-earned money and bring them on the right path... If you can do
this wonder, no one can stop India from being the "number one" country in the
world.
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.
Nature's creation is such that whatever is worth attaining or beneficial for us, we
can get it automatically. But in the race to grab the things which are futile and
painful, we miss attaining them only.
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.
The person who knows the functioning of 'his' own mind, can easily understand
everyone else's as well, which is why he is able to reign over them. All our life,
we unnecessarily engage ourselves in understanding others' minds instead of
our own.
