There are about 330 million gods and goddesses described in Hindu scriptures.
Even on the basis of the population at present, this works out to be around
one God for every 3 individuals. Still looking at the conditions prevalent in our
country, they seem to be busy elsewhere... I feel rather than relying on them, it
is high time that we engage ourselves for the welfare of our country.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Hindu religion, where all gods are "kings" meaning the ones who look after the
interests of their subjects; how can that religion consider those who build palatial
ashrams from others donations, as religious?
It is not that the Muslim community is not changing, but the pace is too slow.
Why don't they understand that without adapting oneself to the changing world,
one cannot really tread the path of progress.
The biggest reason for our failure is, we are not able to see the existence of this
world in its totality. Here, neither it is possible to fulfill the personal interests of
any individual nor of any group.
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
Future is mysterious and has always been full of uncertainties. It has never been
in anyone's control. Therefore, as soon as one thinks of the future, his mind
catches the vibes of fear, worries and insecurities.
Are we Hindu and Indian? Christian and American?... Or a unique human being
born on this earth? The choice that you make here will decide the path of your
life.
Only in India, the Goddess of Wealth is harassed by worshipping her for the
sake of prosperity... Perhaps annoyed by such large scale harassment she has
turned her back on us. Wouldn't it be better if we further our faith only in our
"actions" to prosper in life?
You know yourself by conscious mind, whereas the roots of all your negativities
lie in your subconscious and unconscious mind. Hence, without knowing your
subconscious and unconscious mind, you cannot move even a step towards
success in life.
If you carefully look at the vastness of the universe or the enormous depths
of the ocean with awareness even for a second, all your sorrows will get
dissipated; because then you will be left with no pride of being someone "great"
or "exceptional".
