The one who accepts defeat, before he is defeated or gives up before death,
how can he be considered alive?
Quotations
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.
In this world, if desires could bring any result - then there is no dearth of desires
in anyone.
The day you surely find yourself capable of doing and achieving, what any
person dead or alive in this world could, understand your human birth has been
successful.
The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
In Jain scriptures, the only complete man in the history of the world "Krishna"
is also placed in hell. To the extent that even Buddha, who has enlightened the
whole world has been mentioned by the Jain monks as the one initiated by
"Mahavira". Isn't it the height of their insecurity and inferiority?
Your focus is always on everything else, but you. The biggest proof is, even in
dreams, rarely any of you would have seen your own face. Indeed, it is sad that
not only in your conscious mind but even in your unconscious mind, your focus
is only on others.
Spontaneous consciousness is such a height of the human mind from where all
the peaks of progress can be mounted. This is the reason why a person who
thinks too much can never succeed in life.
One 'beautiful-mind' indeed weighs heavy over thousand creations of nature
and that is why from Socrates to Kabir, all hold such great importance.
People who have become historical figures are the ones, who have done
something new. Then let that innovation be in the field of science, religion,
business, music, literature or even movie-making. The matter worth thinking
about is; is there anything new, in all that we are being offered in the name of
'religion and education' or are we just blindly swallowing it up?
