Mind alone is the cause of bondage and liberation for human beings. The mind attached to sense objects leads to bondage and that which is free of sense objects sets one free.
- Upanishads
Mind alone is the cause of bondage and liberation for human beings. The mind attached to sense objects leads to bondage and that which is free of sense objects sets one free.
Words can confer strength; they can drain it off; Words can gain friends; they can turn them into enemies; words can elevate or lower the individual. One must learn the habit of making one’s words sweet, soft, and pleasant.
One is absolutely sickened, not by the crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalised by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
It is not that we sleep only at night. Our day sleep is far deeper than that. We
rarely awaken for a moment or two. Being awakened means your body, mind
and brain are functioning as per your directions.
-Deep Trivedi
Peace, happiness, satisfaction, compassion, freedom, concentration, etc. are the
qualities which lead you to those intrinsic powers lying deep within your mind...
from where the foundation of you becoming a "historical figure" gets laid.
-Deep Trivedi
Always telling the truth is no doubt better than always lying, although equally pathological.
-Robert Brault
