The small wisdom is like water in a glass: clear, transparent, pure. The great wisdom is like the water in the sea: dark, mysterious, impenetrable.

Wisdom
-Rabindranath Tagore "Rabindranath Tagore"
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"
All good and important things in life, happen; they cannot be done. Be it the
revolving of the earth or digestion of your food. Be it blowing of the wind or
breathing. Be it even making a melody or a discovery.
-Deep Trivedi
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with reverence for the Divine, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
-Sri Guru Granth Sahib "Sri Guru Granth Sahib"
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.
-Deep Trivedi
Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.
-Warren Buffett "Warren Buffett"
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
To enjoy 'what you have' is understandable; but mourning their loss has always
been beyond comprehension.
-Deep Trivedi
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
It is said, 'If God is kind, even a donkey can roar like a lion'... Indeed it is true; but
in this world of intelligent men, where is the readiness in many people to become
"natural"?
-Deep Trivedi
