A successful life is the one which has no desires left in the mind at the time of
death.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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.
Agreed, there cannot be anything in this world more encouraging and exciting
than success. But success is achieved only by those, who refuse to relent on
their efforts even in trying times.
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.
The day you will be able to take your body where your "mind" is, I promise, all
your miseries will disappear at that very moment.
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.
Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same
time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand
that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
Question is, why did the truly "intelligent" people distance themselves from
the great personalities like Krishna, Jesus and Buddha? Because, in order to
strengthen their individual businesses, religious gurus associated miracles with
them. Now, an intelligent person may agree with anything but can never accept
'miracles'.
No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind"
that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an
enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry
again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably
end up being angry.
Neither do we have to make the sun or moon rise nor manage gravitation. We do
not even have to convert the food that we eat into blood. All that we have to do
is, put our own life on the path of peace, bliss and success. Isn't it amusing that
we, who claim ourselves to be so intelligent, cannot do even this bit of work?
