Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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?
Even science has not remained untouched by the marathon for money. All the
commercial successes of the past 200 years are also attributed to the new
inventions and innovations offered by science.
How intelligent are you, can be known by the amount of unexpected happenings
in your life.
'Mind' not only understands all the mysteries of existence but can also reveal
their influence, in the life of any individual of this world with the precision of a
clock... But then it is difficult to understand that instead of delving into our mind,
what sort of trivial tasks have we entangled ourselves in?
If we stop expecting others to treat us as someone special, all our miseries
will be vanquished. When no one understood the great historical legends, right
from Buddha to Jesus in their times...why do you expect others to "understand
you"?
Due to faulty teachings, as we grow we begin to lose the important qualities
like self-confidence, enthusiasm, concentration, vision and foresight. Otherwise
these are the most natural qualities among children. In that case, don't you think
we need to re-evaluate our educational system?
It is still in the hands of psychology to free the person from his 'innermost pains
and miseries' that he endures at deeper level; but it is not in anyone's hand to
help him eliminate his ego-driven sorrows. This is where no one else, but only
he can help himself.
The talented people belonging to developing countries have to promote
themselves on their own at the international level. In this process, a substantial
amount of their energy gets wasted.
"Time" is such a flow that it puts even an exemplary person like "Krishna" to
the deep sleep of death. But the life that he lived and the Bhagavad Gita that
he recited, immortalizes him forever. Even you have to die, then why not do
something that immortalizes you forever.
