Quotations
Religion
I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.
- Mahatma Gandhi
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
Progress is born of doubt and inquiry. The Church never doubts, never inquires. To doubt is heresy, to inquire is to admit that you do not know—the Church does neither.
- Robert G. Ingersoll
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
- Dalai Lama
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.

The first sign that you are becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful.
- Swami Vivekananda
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
- David Mitchell
You look at it, but it is not to be seen; Its name is Formless. You listen to it, but it is not to be heard; Its name is Soundless. You grasp it, but it is not to be held; Its name is Bodiless. These three elude all scrutiny. And hence they blend and become one.
- Scriptures
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa

ashrams from others donations, as religious?
- Deep Trivedi
