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
Only he can perpetrate violence on others, who knowingly or unknowingly is
torturing himself. Otherwise he, who loves himself, can never cause harm to
anyone.
Without knowing your own mind, no success can be achieved in life. But to
understand the mind, neither books nor teachings are available. This is the sole
reason for such a miserable failure of human beings.
If you always want to be happy in life, toy with troubles as if it were a game. See;
whether you defeat the problems or they defeat you.
If taking a bath in the holy Ganges can really wash off your 'sins', then why are
poor criminals put behind bars? Giving them a dip in the Ganges, why aren't
their 'sins' also washed off?
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.
Why don't you simply understand that events are happening outside and your life
is within you. Then whatever happens outside, why should your life be affected
by it ? It does, because you forcibly perceive yourself being attached to it.
Before teaching, scolding, advising or giving opinion to children, every parent
of the world should look deep into their lives and question themselves, are they
really successful in their life? Is it not possible that a child, without holding the
hand of his parents, has the potential to surpass them purely on the basis of his
own decisions and freedom?
Great tasks are not accomplished driven by great ambitions, but the highest
level of concentration and a firm determination.
Since you are born a human being, it is good to have fancies for life and fulfill
them. It will surely broaden your mind. But at the level of consciousness, you must
harness just one big 'aim'. Buddha, Jesus, Edison, Bill Gates, Shakespeare...all
are the result of 'singular orientation' at the level of consciousness.
