The amount of "freedom" with which you are living your life, can be determined
by the extent to which you have to suppress your desires under the pressure
from others.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Any physical inhibition is of no value. Valuable is the intelligence which can
transform your mind.
In life, no one can only be bad. Even the worst of human being has many good
qualities hidden in him. The one who only looks at the better part of people, lives
his life in utter bliss and peace.
Since like a horse you have blind-folded yourself from both the sides, you cannot
see anything other than your own religion and culture; and that is why, your
religious gurus have been feeding you dry grass covering your eyes with green
glasses.
In life, whatever you achieve by putting in efforts will never give you happiness,
as the pain starts right from the time of making an effort. On the other hand, the
tasks that you enjoy doing, persist for long spells; then whatever you gain out of
it, the end result will always be both positive and effective for your life.
Jains insist on having their separate food counters even at others' weddings. It
is really difficult to understand, though they seem to be okay otherwise, what
problem they have in mingling with people?
The marathon for money is so prevalent in the world that in order to sell arms
and amunitions, some nations do not let the clouds of war disperse from the
world.
Love and anger are two names of the same energy. If you learn to use one
properly...the second by itself gets channelized in fruitful tasks.
Nature is all-round balanced by two polar opposites. As there have been
mountains on the earth, equal have been valleys. As vast as the space is,
equally expansive is time. Here, the measure in which negative energy exists,
in the same measure positive energy also exists... It is this balance, which has
made nature sustain itself and we are in this situation today, because we have
disrupted our balance.
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.
