The amount of money, time and energy Indians spend on 'religion' in order
to attain peace and prosperity, the same if spent on researches in the field of
Science, India can really become a happy and prosperous nation.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The irony is, even the countries who embraced Buddha were no less a wonder.
Buddha didn't believe in the concept of God. He was against every kind of
worship... But they also made him a God and worshipped him... Who cares
how terribly it hurts Buddha?
Generally, people believe black colour to be inauspicious, but when their hair
grow grey, the same people colour them black. Now how could you call them
anything but hypocrites?
In today's time, the influence of wealth has increased so much that the wealthy
do not need to possess any other good quality in themselves.
Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
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.
Even science has not remained untouched by the marathon for money. All the
commercial successes of the past 200 years are also attributed to the new
inventions and innovations offered by science.
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
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.
Be it Jesus or Buddha - Krishna or Socrates, there is no such person in this
world whose life and thinking can't be understood; because in the end they are
also nothing more than our "best possible form".
