Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
For a sensible person, the matter worth thinking about is, in the history of past
5000 years, what has been the role of millions of saints, priests and religious
agents in the betterment of the world, and in comparison what has been the
contribution of 500 scientists?... All that we need to decide is, who is genuinely
more compassionate towards mankind?
Progressing from bullock-carts to aircrafts, we saved a lot on time but failed to
learn how and where to utilize this spare time. This is the very reason for the
growing frustration in the world.
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 one and only reason behind all the miseries and failures of our life is our
selfishness and the deeds induced by our selfish nature.
If you would genuinely be satisfied with your feelings, the certificates or opinions
of others would hold no significance for you. So much so that being true, you will
never have to justify yourself.
A person ''true by heart'' is free from all the pains of separation that one generally
endures. Because he knows that the physical meeting and separation depend
upon the circumstances created by nature, then why be unhappy about it? And
if separated from someone by heart, then the question of grieving simply doesn't
arise.
Will science ever be able to create life? No way! The question simply does not
arise because here, no one has the power to create or destroy.
The only principle to bring a task to fruition which you do not know how to do is,
completely surrendering to the person who knows it, with full trust.
Future is mysterious and has always been full of uncertainties. It has never been
in anyone's control. Therefore, as soon as one thinks of the future, his mind
catches the vibes of fear, worries and insecurities.
