Who knows this truly, and who will now declare it, what paths lead together to the gods? Only their lowest aspects of existence are seen, who exist on supreme, mystical planes.
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance… To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
Why didn't I learn to treat everything like it was the last time. My greatest regret was how much I believed in the future.
-Jonathan Safran Foer
There is nothing wrong in having any kind of fancy in life or any physical act, if
done appropriately. Likewise, there is no virtue in visiting temples or worshipping
either. The goodness of being human lies in the qualities like compassion, self-
confidence, self-dependence and innocence which are tainted by attributes like
jealousy, partiality, selfishness and stubbornness.
-Deep Trivedi
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
-Albert Einstein
There is no discovery of science that the Jain monks do not describe as already
mentioned in their scriptures. Then how come despite their scriptures being
loaded with facts of knowledge, forget science, no Jaina is seen achieving
anything significant in any field on the global scale. I believe, now they should
start sending their scriptures for the Noble prize.
