What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Birth is an illusion, so is death. Truth is the element which makes both these
extremes of life meet. The day you recognize it, from then onwards, whenever,
whatever and how much ever you desire...you will get it.
The world is full of atheists. The proof being, no one recognizes the combination
of time and space as the boundless blessings of nature. This is the reason why
everyone is trying to make their life successful depending upon their brain,
desires and so-called religious hypocrisies...and the end result is right in front of
us.
We need to understand, what is more helpful for the growth of life; educational
qualifications or concentration? Glancing at lives from Buddha to Edison,
concentration only seems to be more important.
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?
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.
There is nothing wrong in having any kind of fancy in life or any physical act, if
done appropriately. Likewise, there is no virtue in visiting temples or worshipping
either. The goodness of being human lies in the qualities like compassion, self-
confidence, self-dependence and innocence which are tainted by attributes like
jealousy, partiality, selfishness and stubbornness.
Without knowing your own mind, no success can be achieved in life. But to
understand the mind, neither books nor teachings are available. This is the sole
reason for such a miserable failure of human beings.
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.
What is the difference between a theist and an atheist? An atheist is the one
who fails to recognize the ultimate supremacy of nature; hence he is trying to
enhance life with the help of the knowledge cultivated by his brain. A theist is
the one who does not apply his brain at all. He completely surrenders to the
existence, allowing nature to make and mould him as it deems right.
