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
Quotations
Wisdom
Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.
-Hal Borland "Hal Borland"
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
-Deep Trivedi
The person who indulges in self-torturing thoughts like fasting or uprooting his
own hair is bound to perform acts that will cause pain to others. Now you say,
how can such a person who inflicts pain on others ever be happy?
-Deep Trivedi
By the grace of wisdom and purity of mind, He can be seen indivisible, in the silence of contemplation. This invisible atman can be seen by the mind wherein the five senses are resting.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
Rain down your wisdom in sacred streams to carry me like an upturned leaf through the currents of this grey day.
-Prayer "Prayers for a Planetary Pilgrim"
What is the difference between a theist and an atheist? An atheist is the one
who fails to recognize the ultimate supremacy of nature; hence he is trying to
enhance life with the help of the knowledge cultivated by his brain. A theist is
the one who does not apply his brain at all. He completely surrenders to the
existence, allowing nature to make and mould him as it deems right.
-Deep Trivedi
Irrespective of your relation with a person, to an extent possible, you should
never interfere in anyone’s personal life because at present, even you don't
have an idea of what is good and bad. Till the time you are not aware of the
difference between pains and pleasures of the ego and joys and sorrows of the
soul, it is better to stay away from others’ lives.
-Deep Trivedi
Wise men speak because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something.
-Plato "Plato"
To get enthused about something before it is achieved, always brings undesired
grievous results. To realize it, you need not go far, just reflect upon a few incidents
of your life...you will understand.
-Deep Trivedi
