If your kingdom exists for the doctrine and not for fame or desire, then it will be extremely fruitful. If not, its fruit will be misfortune.
-Scriptures "Nagarjuna, Precious Garland 327"
If your kingdom exists for the doctrine and not for fame or desire, then it will be extremely fruitful. If not, its fruit will be misfortune.
Our aspirations, our affections, and our desires are turned towards the wrong things. And only when we turn them towards the right things will things get better.
The fundamental desire of life is the desire to exist.
For which of you desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?
In this world, if desires could bring any result - then there is no dearth of desires
in anyone.
-Deep Trivedi
"Desire" has a very unique quality. You will never get anything that you desire.
If you do not believe, then peep into your life, you will realize that you never got
what you desired and what you got, you had never desired.
-Deep Trivedi
Longing is like the rosy dawn. After the dawn, out comes the sun. Longing is followed by the vision of God.
