If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 1-2"
If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
Your 'mind' is actually the sum-total of vibrations. So, it will always be beyond
the reach of science. And since you experience all your pains and pleasures
also on the screen of mind, science can never reveal the amount of pains and
miseries hidden in you or where does it come from. Neither will it ever succeed
in surgically removing those miseries from your body.
-Deep Trivedi
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
'Mind' not only understands all the mysteries of existence but can also reveal
their influence, in the life of any individual of this world with the precision of a
clock... But then it is difficult to understand that instead of delving into our mind,
what sort of trivial tasks have we entangled ourselves in?
-Deep Trivedi
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.
-Deep Trivedi
Flood your mind with love. Look into the eyes of the other and embrace the person with whom you have quarrelled. Words are not necessary. Both will have their eyes flooded, and the joy of tears will wash away all quarrels.
Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness towards the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous and indifference towards the wicked.
The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with mind, you get bored and restless very easily. Boredom means the mind is hungry for more stimulus…it is not satisfied.
