The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong

person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.

- Deep Trivedi
