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?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
"Desire" has a very unique quality. You will never get anything that you desire.
If you do not believe, then peep into your life, you will realize that you never got
what you desired and what you got, you had never desired.
Love is possible only step by step. If one loves himself, then only can he love
people around him and only if he loves people around him, can he fall in love
with the entire mankind... But some people directly fall in love with stones and
animals. Difficult to understand, as to who are they trying to deceive?
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?
We are religious gurus. What do we do? Whatever you do, we brand it as a
sin... Meaning, despite being dependent on your donations, we abuse you. Still
this skill of ours works...because there is no dearth of intelligent people in this
world.
Every problem that comes in life need not be taken care of by us. Majority of
them are best left to nature's justice.
Trusting oneself helps you gain self-confidence whereas leading life depending
upon others, be it even God, dwindles your confidence. And only those who are
full of confidence become successful in life.
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
When your destination is long and far and when the odyssey has to be
journeyed by crossing many milestones, it is good to be excited by the little
accomplishments coming your way, but to lose alertness or become careless
because of excitement, will prove to be a deviation from your final destination.
