Quote
A person dies... Disappears into thin air... But people keep on doing things casually as though nothing has happened. TV, radio, newspaper, internet -- everywhere the only discussion should be on who we are and where we have come from? Instead people are busy doing circus. It should make you wonder whether people around you are real or just shadows that are putting on a show to stop you from knowing truth.

Quote
Society gives you some goals. You achieve them after much effort. You celebrate for a few days. Then life becomes the same as before. You don't get the happiness you were expecting. Achievements feel useless. Then you attach your pride to them to make them seem useful. Pride is a tool of self deception.

If somebody has already made up their mind, advising them against it is counter productive. More you oppose, more they defend it and more blind they become about it.

When a wound stays too long on your psyche, it becomes an integral part of your identity. Then you want to get rid of the pain but not the wound. Such a wound allows you to play victim and gain sympathy but deprives you of healthy forms of love. It allows you to outrage and feel powerful but deprives you of real power.

You can connect with only those with whom you have something in common. Nothingness is common in everything. If you identify yourself as nothingness, you can even connect with a rock. If you identify yourself as a particular person, you can only connect with those who belong to your caste, creed, religion, region, race, kind.
