No matter how adverse the circumstances are, never step back when it comes
to "performing your duties" or honouring your responsibilities. If the body wears
out, fuel it with the energy of the mind; if the mind also gets exhausted, pull it
through with the energy of the soul... But no matter what...finish the task taken
in hand.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
If you wish to accomplish your ‘interests’ propelled by selfishness, you will not be
able to. If you try to get others' interests fulfilled sacrificing yourself, it will never
happen. But yes, if you keep everyone's interests in mind including yours, you
will surely be successful.
Success or failure in life depends on our decisions and for the right decision,
a calm and blissful state of mind is a must. In that context, the most important
teaching of our life is the one that...guides us to attain peace and joy.
The childishness of a human being is; on one hand, he is competing to take
credit for success, on the other hand, he is always seeking out an opportunity to
blame someone else for his failure. Consequently, he is never able to analyze
any event accurately.
Brain understands the things by dissecting them because all it knows is the
tangible objects. But mind does not recognize the tangible objects differently; it
only understands the vibrations and their intensities and depths. It is only due
to our inability to establish a mutual communication between the two, that we all
are total failures.
It is against nature to pre-decide, what is to be done the next moment. But
surprisingly, people even decide right from what they aspire to become in future
to when should they visit temples and observe fasts. Now, if you act so much
against nature, of course you will have to bear the brunt of it.
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.
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.
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
The biggest proof of the presence of "witness" is; while indulging in any wrong
doing whether someone knows it or not, there is no such person who himself
does not know that what he is doing, is wrong.
