To concentrate on one task at a time irrespective of its nature or kind, is 'Yoga'.
Likewise, focusing on many tasks at a time is 'Kama', no matter how great or
important you may consider them to be.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
No problem ever comes into existence without a solution... Meaning, no matter
however complex a problem is, there is always a way to resolve it.
If you wish to accomplish your ‘interests’ propelled by selfishness, you will not be
able to. If you try to get others' interests fulfilled sacrificing yourself, it will never
happen. But yes, if you keep everyone's interests in mind including yours, you
will surely be successful.
Don't think you are getting worried because it is a matter of 'worry'; as the same
news yields different intensities of worries in each person.
Laxmi, the Goddess of Wealth sits on an 'Ullu' (An owl is called 'Ullu' in Hindi
which also means a fool)...but here, 24 x 7 we are busy fooling each other. Even
if Laxmi wants to, on whom would she sit?
Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched
on and off at a fixed time regularly, whereas for mind, the dawn is when you
wake up. Understand this difference between man and machine and save your
life from becoming mechanical.
What amount of "truth" are you living in can be gauged from the way you perceive
the good-bad events happening with you, and how much of it you attribute to
yourself and how much to others?
In Jain scriptures, the only complete man in the history of the world "Krishna"
is also placed in hell. To the extent that even Buddha, who has enlightened the
whole world has been mentioned by the Jain monks as the one initiated by
"Mahavira". Isn't it the height of their insecurity and inferiority?
You know yourself by conscious mind, whereas the roots of all your negativities
lie in your subconscious and unconscious mind. Hence, without knowing your
subconscious and unconscious mind, you cannot move even a step towards
success in life.
The person who knows the functioning of 'his' own mind, can easily understand
everyone else's as well, which is why he is able to reign over them. All our life,
we unnecessarily engage ourselves in understanding others' minds instead of
our own.
