What is love? Two souls and one flesh; Friendship? Two bodies and one soul.
-Joseph Roux
Always think of what is useful and not what is beautiful. Beauty will come of its own accord.
-Nikolai Gogol
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
There is no happiness in this world which is not balanced by facing equal amount
of sorrow. If you wish to save yourself from sorrows, then bury the feeling of
indulgence and separate yourself from the one who is enjoying within you. And
this is possible only if you stop taking pride in being a ''doer''.
-Deep Trivedi
As a rule, what is out of sight disturbs men's minds more seriously than what they see.
-Julius Caesar
If God had intended me to make excuses for who I am, He would have given me better excuses.
-Robert Brault
Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds’ wings.
Life is another name for "struggle". Sanyas - the renunciation is the name for
running away from struggle. If you wish to live like a human being who is truly
alive, then you must learn to live amidst struggles.
-Deep Trivedi
