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.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
Ego simply doesn't know how to strike a balance. Either it stays immersed in the
worldly matters or getting distressed, takes 'sanyas' - renounce the world... But
to lead a normal life while being mentally detached from the world is something
that it just does not know.
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.
When we are leading a smooth life today depending upon the creations of
millions of people...then isn't it our duty to do something before death which can
fill the lives of future generations with joy, peace, prosperity and bliss?
If you have full confidence in your personality, the respect and insults of others
will have no effect on you.
In a child's brain, nothing like good - bad, mine - yours or vice - virtue exist. By
way of conditioning, all these are fed into his system. Likewise, the child's liver
cannot take spicy or fried food, for that too it needs to be trained.
If you carefully look at the vastness of the universe or the enormous depths
of the ocean with awareness even for a second, all your sorrows will get
dissipated; because then you will be left with no pride of being someone "great"
or "exceptional".
If you are able to identify your 'being' and your 'nature' separately, you will have
no trouble befalling your way thereafter in life .
