In the past 50 years, what joy and happiness has been offered by the politicians
and religious heads to the people of our country? And in comparison, what is
it that has not been bestowed by our legendary singers like Mohammed Rafi,
Kishore Kumar or Lata - Asha... Thanks to their voices, even today people get to
live a life of bliss and serenity for at least two hours a day.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Proper food and regular exercise is the most essential need of the human body.
Only he, who can strike a balance between the two, can enjoy life. Dieting, only
exercise or 'no exercise', either of these is like playing with your body.
'Mind' not only understands all the mysteries of existence but can also reveal
their influence, in the life of any individual of this world with the precision of a
clock... But then it is difficult to understand that instead of delving into our mind,
what sort of trivial tasks have we entangled ourselves in?
There is no dearth of life in this universe. There are few who are similar to us and
many who are different. The only obstacle in knowing this, is the infinity of the
universe along with the limited progress of life.
Like other particles of the world even "ego" cannot be destroyed. Yes, it can
surely be transformed into soulful qualities... But the moment any "Buddha"
attempts it, fearing extinction, ego not only resists but also activates its self-
defence mechanism.
Existence is governed by its own law. Here, the things impermanent by nature
are bound to meet their end. Hence, with the passage of time, not only Ravana's
Lanka but "Krishna's" Dwarka also sinks.
In this world, there are only two kinds of people who can be happy and successful.
One, who believe that God is almighty...then whatever good - bad, sin - virtue,
all is happening as per his will; the matter ends. Second, who believe that God
doesn't exist at all and take up all their responsibilities by themselves, again the
matter ends. But since all of us are stuck hanging between the two, we end up
being sad and unsuccessful.
It is not that Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or Mohammed lacked anything in their
compassion. If they could, they would have eliminated the "pains and miseries" of
human life long back. But the problem is, in this case we have to help ourselves,
no one else can.
Your focus is always on everything else, but you. The biggest proof is, even in
dreams, rarely any of you would have seen your own face. Indeed, it is sad that
not only in your conscious mind but even in your unconscious mind, your focus
is only on others.
Whatever you are at present, is nothing but the result of sum total of your actions
in this birth till now. Meaning, had you been acting with awareness right from
childhood, you would have been something different today. It also means that
even now if you become aware and consciously perform your actions in future...
certainly, you can become what you really want to.
