If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Agreed, there cannot be anything in this world more encouraging and exciting
than success. But success is achieved only by those, who refuse to relent on
their efforts even in trying times.
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
"Truth" is not an act done at the physical level or an act performed driven by
emotions. Truth is the outcome of that particular action. If someone has used
abusive language for your betterment, then how did he abuse you?... He has
only desired a positive change in you.
In majority of the problems befalling our way, there is nothing much for us to do.
Most of the time they come knocking at others' doors, prompted by fright we
unnecessarily interfere and get caught in them.
The man who claims himself to be super intelligent gives thousands of opinions
on others and various subjects as if no other person is more intelligent than him;
but ask him about the 'sleep' in which he spends one-third of his lifetime and he
is clueless... Isn't it ironical?
"Anger" and "Love"...are the only two centres of energy in human life. Religion,
education and society have killed both these in a human being which is why, the
entire mankind is compelled to lead a life of helplessness.
Every 100 years a crowd of 5 billion people is born, whereas in 100 years hardly
500 people are born with awareness. Now you have to decide, whether you want
to remain a part of the crowd and die; or create your own identity and become
immortal in history forever.
The person who understands the dynamics of changing circumstances, lives
his life satisfied in the present. Of course, he keeps an eye on how things are
shaping... As a result, the moment he sees anything ready on a platter, he
immediately grabs it with both hands.
Only two kinds of deeds can be termed auspicious; one, wherein you get the
pleasure but not at the cost of others. (Mind here, it does not include the imaginary
or ego-driven losses) and second, the task, which if completed benefits millions
of people.
