Tejguru Sirshree Tejparkhiji – Detachment from Attachment   Let Bliss Succeed, Let Sorrow Failabout author (Wikipedia):Tejguru Sirshree Tejparkhiji (b. 1997). Sirshree’s spiritual quest began as a child. Immersed in his spiritual quest, he practiced many meditations. His quest lead him to various school of thought and teachings. His thirst to spend more and more time in search for truth lead him to relinquish his college teaching job. He undertook a long period of contemplation on the mystery of life till his quest ended on enlightenment. He came to the understanding that the missing link in all the paths that lead to truth is ‘Understanding’ itself.Sirshree says, “All paths that lead to truth begin differently – but end in the same way – with understanding. Understanding is the whole thing. And, this understanding is complete in itself. Listening to this understanding is enough.”here is excerpt from first page of the book:FOREWORDWhichis theWeak Link?Although there are several defilements (corruptionsor evils) of mind, at least five distinct defilements havebeen generally recognized.Just as the demon Ravana hadten heads, the mind also has ten horrifying faces. Amongthose, the five major ones of mind are – lust, anger,greed, attachment and ego.These form the main chain ofbondage. The mind exists because of these defilements. Itcan also be said that because these defilements exist, themind exists or because the contrast mind1 exists, thesefive defilements exist.1 Contrast mind signifies the mind that compares and judgeseverything. It is distinct from the simple or instinctive mind.Enjoy
