The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
In this world, the bond of love is possible only between two self-reliant individuals,
but the question is, why would two such people live together?
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.
Please do not fall in the trap of old and faulty teachings. Clearly understand that
suppressing any feeling at the level of mind yields only disastrous results.
Peace, happiness, satisfaction, compassion, freedom, concentration, etc. are the
qualities which lead you to those intrinsic powers lying deep within your mind...
from where the foundation of you becoming a "historical figure" gets laid.
Leaving everything else aside, you first have to establish communication between
yourself and the supreme power. As soon as the communication is established,
all your illusions will be shattered. And the one who doesn't have any "illusion",
who can stop him from mounting the pinnacle of success?
Is there a rebirth? No, not at all. From the perspective of what you think as
your way of being, like your name, your family, your country, society, religion or
wealth, all these will surely cease to exist forever with your death.
Any task that looks very difficult from a distance, remember...the same once
commenced, never proves to be that difficult.
The day you surely find yourself capable of doing and achieving, what any
person dead or alive in this world could, understand your human birth has been
successful.
Why don't we understand the simple fact that we have to spend the major part
of our life with ourselves. Then why do we depend on other people or things and
invite sorrows? Obviously, how can a person who is so dependent on others for
his happiness, ever be happy?
