Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Don't know where and when did the concept of God in the form of human, his
imaginary powers...and fantasies like heaven and hell begin? Whatever be the
case, today they have become a source of livelihood for more than 50 million
pundits, priests and maulvis.
When the sustenance of our life is so dependent on the thousands of inventions
of the scientists and the peace, bliss and happiness is bestowed by the great
artists, then how can we revere them any less than Krishna, Buddha or Christ?
The act which gives you happiness, which even the mind gets excited to do...
how could it be a 'sin'? After death, anyway you will not be able to do anything.
What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
'Joy' emanates only from those actions which bear fruits instantly. 'Act' today and
'result' tomorrow, such karmas can only impart pains and pleasures.
The result of any task is not dependent on what and how you performed it but most
importantly, how confidently you carried it out. Certainly, 'Vastu' and 'Mahurats' -
the auspicious time are the manifestations of lack of confidence. Therefore, their
slightest presence in your thoughts is bound to make your endeavours fail.
Love and anger are two names of the same energy. If you learn to use one
properly...the second by itself gets channelized in fruitful tasks.
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.
Wonder, why does it take so long for the Muslim community to discard their
faulty policies with the changing times? If females could be accorded with voting
rights now in Saudi Arabia, why not 50-100 years ago?
Wonder, how can these Jain monks consider all the good things right from
sumptuous meals, good clothes to being fresh and fragrant also a taboo? In that
case, according to them all the animals should be considered "Pure Jain".
