Only the person who knows how to strike a balance of mind can be happy and
successful in life. Sin - virtue, good - bad are the teachings which disturb the
equilibrium of our mind and unfortunately, these are the teachings which our
religious gurus and scriptures are giving us in abundance. As a result, only one
among millions is able to be happy and successful and that too, he who escapes
their clutches.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Mind
The person who knows the functioning of 'his' own mind, can easily understand
everyone else's as well, which is why he is able to reign over them. All our life,
we unnecessarily engage ourselves in understanding others' minds instead of
our own.
-Deep Trivedi
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.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
Good is that which elevates the mind and evil is that which degrades the mind. Social virtue and vice are temporal entities; they have nothing to do with your relationship with the Supreme.
-A Spiritual Leader "Shri Shri Anandamurti"
On the screen of your mind, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Then that reaction yields thousands of sub-reactions by itself. Therefore, think
thousand times before going against your mind.
-Deep Trivedi
Always safeguard yourself from rules and resolves. Machines can be switched
on and off at a fixed time regularly, whereas for mind, the dawn is when you
wake up. Understand this difference between man and machine and save your
life from becoming mechanical.
-Deep Trivedi
If you wish to understand mind and life, then religion or institutes will not be
able to teach you. For that, you will have to carefully observe all the natural
phenomena and events unfolding around you.
-Deep Trivedi
Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.
-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"
Win over the ill-natured man by goodness…Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 116-18"
Our 'mind' is as old as the existence; whereas our brain is of this birth. Hence, the thinking of mind is boundless whereas in the case of brain, it is limited. Since there is no possibility of unanimity of action between the two, we end up living in confusion.
-Deep Trivedi
