Hindu religion, where all gods are "kings" meaning the ones who look after the
interests of their subjects; how can that religion consider those who build palatial
ashrams from others donations, as religious?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Haven’t you ever felt the "suddenness" factor of existence in your life? Pay
attention, you are trying to remember something, but can't; then suddenly it
flashes. You make innumerable attempts to achieve something, but fail... Then
one fine day, when even you have forgotten that you wanted to achieve something
like this, suddenly you get it.
Since human consciousness has traversed its journey from an amoeba to a
human being on the Principle of Evolution, if you note carefully, each one of us
will find many animal instincts within ourselves. To get rid of these instincts is the
first and foremost duty of every human being.
Success or failure in life depends on our decisions and for the right decision,
a calm and blissful state of mind is a must. In that context, the most important
teaching of our life is the one that...guides us to attain peace and joy.
No matter how adverse the circumstances are, never step back when it comes
to "performing your duties" or honouring your responsibilities. If the body wears
out, fuel it with the energy of the mind; if the mind also gets exhausted, pull it
through with the energy of the soul... But no matter what...finish the task taken
in hand.
Trusting oneself helps you gain self-confidence whereas leading life depending
upon others, be it even God, dwindles your confidence. And only those who are
full of confidence become successful in life.
Due to faulty teachings, as we grow we begin to lose the important qualities
like self-confidence, enthusiasm, concentration, vision and foresight. Otherwise
these are the most natural qualities among children. In that case, don't you think
we need to re-evaluate our educational system?
When your destination is long and far and when the odyssey has to be
journeyed by crossing many milestones, it is good to be excited by the little
accomplishments coming your way, but to lose alertness or become careless
because of excitement, will prove to be a deviation from your final destination.
Denying anything strongly, is nothing but inviting that thing in life, if not today...
tomorrow to assume a monstrous form.
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
