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.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The human life is not meant for compromises, but to explore and tread the path
of life on the basis of your skills and talents.
'Fear' and 'greed' are two sides of the same coin. If you manage to save yourself
from one...you will automatically be freed from the other.
Flashing of past or future in any form or thinking about it even for a moment...is
nothing but the 'ego'.
The Jain monks, who claim their scriptures to be more knowledgeable and
advanced than science, by walking barefoot and uprooting hair with their own
hands, which scientific age prescribed in their scriptures do they want to drive
mankind to?
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.
In families, where there is freedom of speech and anger, there may be few trivial
fights or arguments on daily basis, but there will never be a big quarrel. The root
cause of all the bitterness of life is the anger which is suppressed in people.
Many a times, our unessential understanding becomes the cause of our problem,
yet we can't resist applying our brain in every trivial matter.
Can't you keep the soil of your mind firm? Yes you can, if you shift your focus
from the pains and pleasures of life to your "being" and keep it steadfast there.
Just as extra energy is required to push the space shuttle out of earth's gravitation,
likewise, we also need energy above a certain limit to free the mind from the
influence of brain.
