The Power Within

No matter what you do, there would always be oppositions, contractions, and conflicts. There is no person existed on this earth who lived his life without any oppositions, contractions, and conflicts. Even the most influential person of this world cannot convince and please everyone by his deeds, thoughts, and ideas. People would find something even in the noblest work done by someone and start opposing and criticizing. They would try to prove why they are right in their views and you would try to prove yours. This contention to prove who is right and who is wrong drains massive time and energy. And at last, the outcome remains disappointing. If you involve yourself in persuading your opponent to accept and support your views, ideas, deeds and your way of life, there would be nothing, but struggle and conflicts. The more you try to persuade them, the more contradictions and conflicts occur. You would be crippled. Your natural flow would disrupt. You will find perve...

Lord Mahavira sacrificed everything - his kingdom, his family, all the luxury, his clothes, even his hairs in order to attain Kaivalya Gyan, the supreme knowledge. Many people follow the lifestyle of Lord Mahavira. They also want to attain Kaivalya Gyan like him. There is nothing wrong in this attempt. But by simply sacrificing clothes and luxury like Lord Mahavira would not guarantee to attain what Mahavira attained, if you are not comfortable with this lifestyle.

For lord Mahavira, that was the comfortable way to spend his life like that. That was his nature. And in his true nature, he attained that supreme knowledge. It does not mean that for attaining the supreme knowledge, you have to sacrifice your clothes, and sleep on the earth and give other many kinds of torture to your physical body. No need to be...

Lord Buddha, who founded Buddhism, was given poison, a mad elephant was left behind him, and a big rock was rolled to crush him. All the efforts were made to kill him. He was humiliated and disrespected at multiple places and occasions. He was criticized. People attempted to tarnish him from every angle. His companions left him alone in the forest as he did not follow the blind rituals which were suggested to him by them. On the other hand, his followers and Boddh Bhikshu who tell his teachings and stories are respected and revered wherever they go. After the Nirvana of the Buddha, they rifted the Buddhism. The division of the same religion cannot be the teaching of Buddha. But, that happened. It does not matter whether they have realized what Buddha had brought in, still they get more reverence and honor and respect than Buddha himself got at his time. Lord Mahavira was stoned, mad dogs were left behind him, and iron rods were pierced in his ears. He was humiliated and disre...
