If taking a bath in the holy Ganges can really wash off your 'sins', then why are
poor criminals put behind bars? Giving them a dip in the Ganges, why aren't
their 'sins' also washed off?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
All your efforts at the end are nothing, but inviting pains and pleasures in life,
whereas to be steadfast in your 'being' no effort is required. The best part is,
there is only joy and happiness, not just for one but for hundreds of reasons.
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?
In any country of the world, the amount of serenity that is endowed by the artists;
an equal amount of peace is robbed by the politicians and religious heads of that
country.
Trust me, 'you' are only a spectator who is watching the ups and downs of
everyone’s life including yours. Your problem is; you believe yourself to be the
doer.
There is a "point of creativity" lying in the deep recesses of your mind which only
gets activated by concentration. And without that point being active, no success
can be achieved in life.
For a week, you just closely observe the vibrations arising in your mind, events
unfolding around you and the functioning of nature. You will realize that other
than your false hopes and unfounded fears, no one needs "God".
'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.
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
Science may assert many things authoritatively in the field of Physics and
Chemistry, but when it comes to "life", it will always remain dubious.
