If you wish to experience the ego of having done something great in life, then
you will have to do away with all those small petty egos you tend to carry day in
and day out.

In this world, there is only one way to lead a life of truth - "either you consider
everyone dead including yourself or you treat all others at par with yourself."
What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
In this world of infinite "Time and Space", if you could not decipher the rationale
of your 6 feet long body coming into existence for about 60 years, then whatever
you did, learnt or achieved is all useless.
We need to understand, what is more helpful for the growth of life; educational
qualifications or concentration? Glancing at lives from Buddha to Edison,
concentration only seems to be more important.
Believing life to be of 60 years, we live our entire life considering it to be "One"
unit. This is the reason, why memories of the past and fear of the future keep
haunting us. Whereas in reality, life is the culmination of billions of moments put
together. Hence, each moment - a new moment. And when each moment is a
new moment... then which past and whose future?
The vast space of this universe doesn't end anywhere. Think, even if it ends,
what would lie beyond? That too, can't be anything other than space. In such a
certainly infinite universe what sort of things are we worried about?
In the universe, everything has its own individual nature. No element of existence
has any confusion with regards to their nature except the intelligent human being,
who is absolutely clueless about his own nature.
Life is only the present. Here, the moment once gone, is gone forever. It can
never come back. At the same time, no moment of future arrives with prior
intimation. Hence, this travel back and forth in the past and future, is nothing but
the manifestation of our fears. There is nothing worthwhile in it.
In majority of the problems befalling our way, there is nothing much for us to do.
Most of the time they come knocking at others' doors, prompted by fright we
unnecessarily interfere and get caught in them.
