If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Neither lavish living is a sin nor simple living a virtue; but pretending and portraying
other than what we are or what we have, is certainly our hypocrisy.
Since we have taken human birth, doing our karma is the only ''worship''
and honouring duties and responsibilities, the only "meditation". Separately
worshiping or meditation is performed by those, who have turned their back on
duties.
In any country of the world, the amount of serenity that is endowed by the artists;
an equal amount of peace is robbed by the politicians and religious heads of that
country.
As science needs "energy" to change the form of any matter, even you need
energy to transform your nature. If you don't have the energy, even if you desire,
you will not be able to bring a change in yourself.
If any achievement of your life goes to your head and you are gripped by ego...
then understand that you have reached your limit to grow. Now there can be only
one way to go and that is downwards.
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
Only in India, the Goddess of Wealth is harassed by worshipping her for the
sake of prosperity... Perhaps annoyed by such large scale harassment she has
turned her back on us. Wouldn't it be better if we further our faith only in our
"actions" to prosper in life?
To show the path of life many a times a 'foe'...is far more helpful than friends.
Thanks to them, you not only remain alert, but at times they also prove to be a
source of encouragement for you... In that case, where is the place for hatred in
this world?
In the past 50 years, what joy and happiness has been offered by the politicians
and religious heads to the people of our country? And in comparison, what is
it that has not been bestowed by our legendary singers like Mohammed Rafi,
Kishore Kumar or Lata - Asha... Thanks to their voices, even today people get to
live a life of bliss and serenity for at least two hours a day.
