Quotations
Religion
If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
- Deep Trivedi
A religious person is...the one who accepts the responsibility for the success and
failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.
- Deep Trivedi
Restaurants get you in with food to sell you liquor; religions get you in with belief to sell you rules.
- Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?
- Deep Trivedi
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.

I had a thousand questions to ask God; but when I met him they all fled and didn't seem to matter.

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
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
