Quotations
Religion
The more I study religions the more I am convinced that man never worshiped anything but himself.
- Richard Francis Burton
Nothing is more disastrous for a human being than 'self-reproach'. Right from
self-confidence to your existence, it shatters everything. Yet these religious
gurus, ignorant of this science of mind, in order to run their businesses keep
feeding the feeling of sinfulness in people.
- Deep Trivedi
If putting a 'tilak' on the forehead, wearing a holy thread on the wrist, offering
prayers five times a day or visiting a temple, mosque and church, you could
attain 'Dharma - the religion', the ultimate height of the world, then nothing is
cheaper than religion.
- Deep Trivedi
Only that, which influences everyone everywhere equally is the blessing of God
like sun, moon, air, water and human life. How could having different scriptures
and diverse beliefs for various religions ever be termed as being religious?
- Deep Trivedi
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.
- Thomas Paine
A priest once quoted to me the Roman saying that a religion is dead when the priests laugh at each other across the altar. I always laugh at the altar, be it Christian, Hindu, or Buddhist, because real religion is the transformation of anxiety into laughter.
- Alan Wilson Watts
Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.
- Issac Asimov
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
- Ray Bradbury
There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
- Albert Einstein
