Quotations
Religion
Those who are ignorant of the supreme purpose of life will never be able to attain nirvana (liberation) in spite of their observance of the vratas (vows) and niyamas (rules) of religious conduct and practice of shila (celibacy) and tapas (penance).
- Scriptures
One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.
- Thomas Paine
All the religions of the world may be good and true. But situated as we are, our own religion is the best for us.

failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.

Hatred and contempt, be it for a thing or a person, has no place in the 'Hindu'
religion... Whereas these so-called Hindu saints are building number of ashrams
by inculcating the unnecessary feeling of 'sinfulness' in you. What kind of Hindu
are you and what kind of saints are these?
- Deep Trivedi
All religions exhort us to cleanse the heart of malice, greed, hate and anger. All religions hold out the gift of Grace as the prize for success in this cleaning process.
- Sathya Sai Baba
