Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 171"
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
The whole world is a psychology and everything belonging to this world, living or
non-living also has its own psychology. No one can ever bring a thing out of the
sphere of its psychology.
-Deep Trivedi
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
It is not that the world has deteriorated today. You perceive the world as you are.
The world has been the same from the very beginning; neither has there been
a virtuous age (Dharma yuga) nor a sin age (Papi yuga). Here, everything has
always been dependent on an individual's perspective with which he looks at it.
-Deep Trivedi
We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.
Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
