Do you know the difference between 'doing' and 'happening'? Whatever that
you have to do out of compulsion, shows your lack of power and slavery, and
whatever that simply ''happens'' by you is actually the time when you are really
alive.

No matter how much ever your brain understands, ultimately it is the "mind"
that needs to be transformed. Because of wrong decisions being taken in an
enraged state of mind, the brain may decide n-number of times not to get angry
again, yet, as soon as there is an inkling of anger in the mind, you will invariably
end up being angry.
What is religion? The science of mind and life. Who are Buddha, Krishna and
Christ? The doctors of our mind and life.
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"?
Are these 'Christians' really the followers of Jesus Christ, who for the sake of
all had happily embraced crucifixion? Despite speaking the truth, the manner in
which Galileo was treated by the Pope and priests in the name of the Bible, it
does not seem so.
Only that, which cannot be separated from you even after death is yours; and
that cannot be anything other than your "self-contentment".
The day you will be able to take your body where your "mind" is, I promise, all
your miseries will disappear at that very moment.
If any achievement of your life goes to your head and you are gripped by ego...
then understand that you have reached your limit to grow. Now there can be only
one way to go and that is downwards.
Neither lavish living is a sin nor simple living a virtue; but pretending and portraying
other than what we are or what we have, is certainly our hypocrisy.
How soon you overcome each incident, good or bad happening with you reveals
how deeply you understand life?
