Wonder, how can these Jain monks consider all the good things right from
sumptuous meals, good clothes to being fresh and fragrant also a taboo? In that
case, according to them all the animals should be considered "Pure Jain".
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
There is a deep connection between mind and body. If the acid level rises in
the body, it often leaves you worried. At the same time, it is also true that if your
nature is negative, even if you eat "fruits", you will feel acidic.
If something is considered right at a particular place at a particular time, the
same thing is rendered useless with the change of place and time. In that case,
of what relevance is the list of good and bad deeds that we are working upon?
Trust me, 'you' are only a spectator who is watching the ups and downs of
everyone’s life including yours. Your problem is; you believe yourself to be the
doer.
Here at the most what you can become is, as your nature moulds you in the
process of life. Yes, in an effort to become something else, you can always get
ruined. So, as long as possible please do not try to tamper with your nature.
Concentration is magic because in concentration, energy moves in circular
motion. On the other hand, universal energy also moves in a circular motion. This
is the reason, when we work with full concentration, we immediately get attuned
to nature. Once the tuning with nature is set, know for sure, your life will be full of
peace, happiness and prosperity. Hence, if you wish to achieve great success,
you must learn to do even the smallest of the tasks with full concentration.
You are a part of the existence, but the problem of your life is; propelled by
selfishness, you are trying to create a different world for yourself.
A religious person knows how to embrace things in a right manner; an irreligious
person simply renounces things out of "fear".
Whatever and in whichever form it is in front of you...other than accepting it, a
human being has no other option. The faster you accept it and engage yourself
in the tasks ahead, the faster you progress.
Spontaneous consciousness is such a height of the human mind from where all
the peaks of progress can be mounted. This is the reason why a person who
thinks too much can never succeed in life.
