There is no difference in the principles of our life and business. Both flourish by
thinking for the betterment of all. Selfish approach brings both to the brink of
devastation..
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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?
Only in India, the Goddess of Wealth is harassed by worshipping her for the
sake of prosperity... Perhaps annoyed by such large scale harassment she has
turned her back on us. Wouldn't it be better if we further our faith only in our
"actions" to prosper in life?
Be it life or business, "satisfaction" is the biggest key to success. Firstly, being
satisfied you don't fall back; secondly, in the absence of greed and ambitions,
you do not engage yourself in mindless activities and miserably fail; and thirdly,
sitting peacefully, you are able to spot the golden opportunities to grow in life.
The people who work for 'fame' and 'money', reach nowhere in life... But the
one who simply does it because he enjoys it, ends up achieving both "fame and
money".
The childishness of a human being is; on one hand, he is competing to take
credit for success, on the other hand, he is always seeking out an opportunity to
blame someone else for his failure. Consequently, he is never able to analyze
any event accurately.
The only principle to bring a task to fruition which you do not know how to do is,
completely surrendering to the person who knows it, with full trust.
Anger, worries, fear, worship, insecurity, jealousy and partiality drag you to
such darker recesses of the mind from where even a blind person seems clear-
sighted. When you have lost the sense to see things in their right perspective,
how could you get anything but failure 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.
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
