How could a person who is busy trying to amass more than a moment, ever
be successful in a world which is enlightened by just one facet of time i.e
'present'?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The success of our endeavours does not depend on the quantum of efforts, but
the state of mind engaged...at the time of pursuing the task.
The result of any task is not dependent on what and how you performed it but most
importantly, how confidently you carried it out. Certainly, 'Vastu' and 'Mahurats' -
the auspicious time are the manifestations of lack of confidence. Therefore, their
slightest presence in your thoughts is bound to make your endeavours fail.
If you would genuinely be satisfied with your feelings, the certificates or opinions
of others would hold no significance for you. So much so that being true, you will
never have to justify yourself.
'Joy' emanates only from those actions which bear fruits instantly. 'Act' today and
'result' tomorrow, such karmas can only impart pains and pleasures.
Proper food and regular exercise is the most essential need of the human body.
Only he, who can strike a balance between the two, can enjoy life. Dieting, only
exercise or 'no exercise', either of these is like playing with your body.
The Jain monks, who claim their scriptures to be more knowledgeable and
advanced than science, by walking barefoot and uprooting hair with their own
hands, which scientific age prescribed in their scriptures do they want to drive
mankind to?
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
If taking a bath in the holy Ganges can really wash off your 'sins', then why are
poor criminals put behind bars? Giving them a dip in the Ganges, why aren't
their 'sins' also washed off?
Love is not proven by empty words or feelings, but by the ultimate outcome of
the acts and attitudes exchanged. If everyone around you is happy and healthy
- then only your love is true.
