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

they get hurt every now and then... As such it is understandable, the slightest
tremor is enough to cause the debilitated structures to collapse.
- Deep Trivedi
One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.
- Thomas Paine
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa

to destroy us, we placed them only as gods before you. Now say, how could our
shutters ever be pulled down?

failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.
- Deep Trivedi
It is easy to talk on religion, but difficult to practice it.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
