By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
-Benjamin Franklin
Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.
Excess generally causes reaction, and produces a change in the opposite direction, whether it be in the seasons, or in individual, or in governments.
-Plato
Live in the world like a waterfowl. The water clings to the bird, but the bird shakes it off. Live in the world like a mudfish. The fish lives in the mud, but its skin is always bright and shiny.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
There are words which sever hearts more than sharp swords; there are words the point of which sting the heart through the course of a whole life.
Whatever you are at present, is nothing but the result of sum total of your actions
in this birth till now. Meaning, had you been acting with awareness right from
childhood, you would have been something different today. It also means that
even now if you become aware and consciously perform your actions in future...
certainly, you can become what you really want to.
-Deep Trivedi
Excessive attachment to sense pleasures leads to bondage, and detachment from sense pleasures leads to liberation; therefore it is the mind alone that is responsible for bondage or liberation.
Is there a rebirth? No, not at all. From the perspective of what you think as
your way of being, like your name, your family, your country, society, religion or
wealth, all these will surely cease to exist forever with your death.
-Deep Trivedi
What is more valuable, the car or you? Certainly you... Then instead of the car,
why don't you wear a necklace of lemon and chillies, as it is you, who is more at
risk.
-Deep Trivedi
