No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
-Gautama Buddha
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
-Deep Trivedi
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: If there is any reaction, both are transformed.
-Carl Gustav Jung
After helping someone, if you expect a gesture of gratitude from him, then there
is no point in helping. If you feel good when he expresses his gratitude, then too
helping is useless. In that case, you must understand that your help was merely
a means to satiate your ego.
-Deep Trivedi
The first recipe for happiness is: Avoid too lengthy meditation on the past.
-André Maurois
The science of mind is completely contrary to the knowledge of the brain. At
the level of mind, as we regret doing the wrong deed, we repeatedly commit the
same act. Hence, at the level of mind, it is advisable to understand, not repent.
-Deep Trivedi
‘New’ is a beautiful word which opens up many possibilities. If every day can be viewed as ‘New’ then, life blossoms - like new leaves, buds, flowers and fruit - full of colour, fragrance, taste and rasa: the very essence of living.
