"There is nothing like a vice or a virtue" and it has been said many a times in the
Bhagavad Gita by Krishna himself. Then why do these saints keep frightening
us everyday by reading out the long list of vices?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
If you mould yourself according to time and let yourself flow with the changing
circumstances, see, what you will soon transform into.
If you always want to be happy in life, toy with troubles as if it were a game. See;
whether you defeat the problems or they defeat you.
The entire human life is driven by mind, and mind functions according to its
laws... In that case, what can be more important in human life than knowing and
understanding these laws of mind?
Science may assert many things authoritatively in the field of Physics and
Chemistry, but when it comes to "life", it will always remain dubious.
The ultimate height of human intelligence is understanding the ''science of mind''.
Intelligence at a secondary level is the understanding of principles of "time and
space" and its impact. Surprisingly, even people who know neither of these, still
consider themselves to be intelligent.
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
Have you ever seen classes where tigers are taught to hunt, monkeys to jump
or cows being trained to abstain from eating flesh? Then what are we being
preached and why? Do our religious heads and scriptures consider us even
worse than animals?
All the effective knowledge is very much hidden in the deep recesses of human mind. This is the reason, be it melodies of Mozart or Omar Khayyam's rubaiyat, Krishna's Bhagavad Gita or Einstein's formula which transformed the world E=mc2; all of them have stemmed from within.
Ultimate freedom means to live life freely with ''self-discipline''. Ego means
living by the thousands of disciplines borrowed from vice - virtues, religion and
society.
