Even if science works hard for thousands of years, it cannot formulate anything
like a blood test that could detect our feelings and emotions lying deep within,
because this is the subject of Psychology and Psychology is far beyond the
reach of Physical Science.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Because we know, we are doing wrong, what others think of us holds so much
importance to us.
All your efforts at the end are nothing, but inviting pains and pleasures in life,
whereas to be steadfast in your 'being' no effort is required. The best part is,
there is only joy and happiness, not just for one but for hundreds of reasons.
Every individual 'ego' wants to reach the top of the world but the beauty of nature
is such that only a 'non-egoist' gets to sit on the summit of ego.
Only in India, the Goddess of Wealth is harassed by worshipping her for the
sake of prosperity... Perhaps annoyed by such large scale harassment she has
turned her back on us. Wouldn't it be better if we further our faith only in our
"actions" to prosper in life?
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.
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.
What is the difference between foolishness and deviousness? The consequences
of both have to be faced equally, anyway.
Leaving everything else aside, you first have to establish communication between
yourself and the supreme power. As soon as the communication is established,
all your illusions will be shattered. And the one who doesn't have any "illusion",
who can stop him from mounting the pinnacle of success?
Instead of offering namaz five times a day, it is better to develop the habit of
performing five good deeds a day.
