Neither the ones who have created enormous wealth under the shade of religion,
nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The one who is causing harm to himself is not bad, but the one, who is causing
harm to others is... As far as the person himself is concerned, he has always
been free.
It is not that we sleep only at night. Our day sleep is far deeper than that. We
rarely awaken for a moment or two. Being awakened means your body, mind
and brain are functioning as per your directions.
What is the difference between a theist and an atheist? An atheist is the one
who fails to recognize the ultimate supremacy of nature; hence he is trying to
enhance life with the help of the knowledge cultivated by his brain. A theist is
the one who does not apply his brain at all. He completely surrenders to the
existence, allowing nature to make and mould him as it deems right.
It is not that America has the most talented people. Majority of them are the ones
who have migrated from other countries and have accepted the US citizenship.
While among the rest, there are many who have been promoted well.
"The laws of nature" are the supreme authority of the world. Krishna, Buddha
and Christ are also the people who accepting and surrendering to the supremacy
of nature, have dissolved their individual existence i.e. "ego".
What is the difference between us and Buddha, Krishna and Christ? Firstly,
eliminating the negativities of mind, they energized themselves and then they
deployed the same energy for the upliftment of the whole world. And look at us,
we are so inept that we can't even amass 'energy for our own betterment'.
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
We need to understand, what is more helpful for the growth of life; educational
qualifications or concentration? Glancing at lives from Buddha to Edison,
concentration only seems to be more important.
If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
