"Life, the Truth, and Being Free"

the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
-Deep Trivedi
Nature's creation is such that whatever is worth attaining or beneficial for us, we
can get it automatically. But in the race to grab the things which are futile and
painful, we miss attaining them only.
-Deep Trivedi
Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
