Meditation is not an act that has to be done separately or to be achieved in
isolation of the forests. It is a quality, which continuously gets enhanced with the
habit of doing even the smallest of the tasks with full concentration.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
What do we call brilliancy? An attitude of applying more than required. But then
what is the need to apply more than that is needed? That in itself is a kind of
foolishness.
Ultimate freedom means to live life freely with ''self-discipline''. Ego means
living by the thousands of disciplines borrowed from vice - virtues, religion and
society.
Please do not fall in the trap of old and faulty teachings. Clearly understand that
suppressing any feeling at the level of mind yields only disastrous results.
Ego simply doesn't know how to strike a balance. Either it stays immersed in the
worldly matters or getting distressed, takes 'sanyas' - renounce the world... But
to lead a normal life while being mentally detached from the world is something
that it just does not know.
The talented people belonging to developing countries have to promote
themselves on their own at the international level. In this process, a substantial
amount of their energy gets wasted.
It is not that the IQ of an average Indian is lower than that of the people of
developed countries. The only difference is, they know how to use it constructively
and they also have a conducive environment for the same. Whereas in case of
Indians, the entire intelligence gets wasted in image building and in dealing with
other's smartness.
A king is the one, who is the master of himself. You are just a slave of your
religion, caste, creed, society, thinking, desires and worries.
