Once you have commenced the task, then moving your concentration and
energies away, prior to its "successful completion" - is like inviting failure
yourself.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The childishness of a human being is; on one hand, he is competing to take
credit for success, on the other hand, he is always seeking out an opportunity to
blame someone else for his failure. Consequently, he is never able to analyze
any event accurately.
Be it life or business, only he grows who not only stands firm wherever he is, but
also remains satisfied with it.
Considering only your belief system to be true, you have been supporting it
firmly for ages. But why don't you understand that without taking constructive
criticism in your stride, it is impossible to tread the right path as per the need
of time. It is the law of human consciousness that the more one is open to his
own criticism, the more refined he gets. Only because of their own fanaticism,
the Muslim brothers all over the world are practically deprived of the immense
compassion of "intelligent" people.
There is no happiness in this world which is not balanced by facing equal amount
of sorrow. If you wish to save yourself from sorrows, then bury the feeling of
indulgence and separate yourself from the one who is enjoying within you. And
this is possible only if you stop taking pride in being a ''doer''.
The principles of our mind and life are far more profound than the principles of
science. In fact, all the discoveries or inventions of science are also attributed to
the principles of mind and life.
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.
Our 'mind' is as old as the existence; whereas our brain is of this birth. Hence, the thinking of mind is boundless whereas in the case of brain, it is limited. Since there is no possibility of unanimity of action between the two, we end up living in confusion.
Only he can perpetrate violence on others, who knowingly or unknowingly is
torturing himself. Otherwise he, who loves himself, can never cause harm to
anyone.
Behind all fears of man, there is only one fear, the fear of death. The one who
conquers this fear is bound to win over fear itself.
