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.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Like other particles of the world even "ego" cannot be destroyed. Yes, it can
surely be transformed into soulful qualities... But the moment any "Buddha"
attempts it, fearing extinction, ego not only resists but also activates its self-
defence mechanism.
The amount of "freedom" with which you are living your life, can be determined
by the extent to which you have to suppress your desires under the pressure
from others.
Neither do we have to make the sun or moon rise nor manage gravitation. We do
not even have to convert the food that we eat into blood. All that we have to do
is, put our own life on the path of peace, bliss and success. Isn't it amusing that
we, who claim ourselves to be so intelligent, cannot do even this bit of work?
Be it human life or universe, here everything happens according to a set law...
Meaning, the law of nature is one such formula that once understood, you are
not even required to do anything. Just apply the formula and get whatever you
desire.
The root cause of all the sorrows of life is desire. Desire arises by looking at
things around you. Meaning, the one who keeps his eyes fixed only on himself,
will never be unhappy.
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
Edison is Edison because experiments come to him naturally and he lets it flow
from his inner being. We are compelled to work, so we are unsuccesful. Whereas
Buddha, Krishna and Jesus are the people whose each and every action is a
happening induced by nature.
If you wish to experience the ego of having done something great in life, then
you will have to do away with all those small petty egos you tend to carry day in
and day out.
If pilgrimages were so sacred then why do thousands of pilgrims become victims
of accidents every year? Is God venting his anger on those, who despite being
born as human beings continue to harass him?
