Can't you keep the soil of your mind firm? Yes you can, if you shift your focus
from the pains and pleasures of life to your "being" and keep it steadfast there.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Certainly there is no delight greater than self-satisfaction in this world... But the
feeling of self-satisfaction comes only by doing good to others.
Love is not proven by empty words or feelings, but by the ultimate outcome of
the acts and attitudes exchanged. If everyone around you is happy and healthy
- then only your love is true.
An auspicious time is not something to be looked for in calendars or panchangs.
The moment when time, opportunity, circumstances and conditions fall in place,
that becomes an auspicious time. It is as simple as "Once the bride and groom
are ready, what is the need for a pastor!"
A king is the one, who is the master of himself. You are just a slave of your
religion, caste, creed, society, thinking, desires and worries.
When the sustenance of our life is so dependent on the thousands of inventions
of the scientists and the peace, bliss and happiness is bestowed by the great
artists, then how can we revere them any less than Krishna, Buddha or Christ?
Hindu religion, where all gods are "kings" meaning the ones who look after the
interests of their subjects; how can that religion consider those who build palatial
ashrams from others donations, as religious?
For peace, bliss and prosperity in life, what we need is energy, not knowledge. The
biggest source of energy is "concentration" and the biggest enemy, "thinking".
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
Only two kinds of deeds can be termed auspicious; one, wherein you get the
pleasure but not at the cost of others. (Mind here, it does not include the imaginary
or ego-driven losses) and second, the task, which if completed benefits millions
of people.
