If we stop expecting others to treat us as someone special, all our miseries
will be vanquished. When no one understood the great historical legends, right
from Buddha to Jesus in their times...why do you expect others to "understand
you"?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
How 'aware' you are by mind, can be judged by the number of people who are
able to gauge your reactions on any particular matter. You will always find the
reactions of an awakened person to be unexpected.
All the effective knowledge is very much hidden in the deep recesses of human mind. This is the reason, be it melodies of Mozart or Omar Khayyam's rubaiyat, Krishna's Bhagavad Gita or Einstein's formula which transformed the world E=mc2; all of them have stemmed from within.
The value of human life lies in doing your "karma" and as long as we are alive,
there is absolutely no question of shirking from your duties and responsibilities.
Hence, escaping karma and escaping life, both are essentially the same.
Haven’t you ever felt the "suddenness" factor of existence in your life? Pay
attention, you are trying to remember something, but can't; then suddenly it
flashes. You make innumerable attempts to achieve something, but fail... Then
one fine day, when even you have forgotten that you wanted to achieve something
like this, suddenly you get it.
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.
What can be said of the human brilliancy? Every day, it comes up with hundreds
of schemes to bring upon its own destruction.
If brain is the centre of thoughts, liver is the centre of body. As brain becomes
inactive when not used, liver gets weak by long term dieting and eating simple
food.
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.
The success of our endeavours does not depend on the quantum of efforts, but
the state of mind engaged...at the time of pursuing the task.
