Quotations
Deep Trivedi
'Fear' and 'greed' are two sides of the same coin. If you manage to save yourself
from one...you will automatically be freed from the other.
A religious person knows how to embrace things in a right manner; an irreligious
person simply renounces things out of "fear".
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
Mahavira had renounced clothing... But then why are majority of the clothing
shops owned by the Jains named "Mahavira Vastralaya"?
"Anger" and "Love"...are the only two centres of energy in human life. Religion,
education and society have killed both these in a human being which is why, the
entire mankind is compelled to lead a life of helplessness.
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
As in many people, the brain slows down with age, in some cases, even liver
functioning slows down or gives up in later years and then they have to eat light
and simple food. But here the question is; what about those, who are eating
simple and light food at the peak of their youth? Nothing else, the weak liver
leaves them prone to many illnesses.
All the struggles of life are less dependent on circumstances and more on our
state of mind. This is the reason why "a resolute mind" is easily able to conquer
even the toughest of the problems.
If something is considered right at a particular place at a particular time, the
same thing is rendered useless with the change of place and time. In that case,
of what relevance is the list of good and bad deeds that we are working upon?
To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
