Quotations
Religion

- Sri Aurobindo
Religion. A daughter of Hope and Fear, explaining to Ignorance the nature of the Unknowable.

Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
- Deep Trivedi
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.

The Hindu world has always accepted 'religion' in its totality; as their 'God' who is free from all attachments has not denied anything, right from wine to dance and violence for the destruction of evil to the worldly life… Then on what grounds, these proprietors of Hindu religion term the 'life fancier' people (the ones indulging in pleasures of life) as sinners and themselves religious?
- Deep Trivedi
Religion is based primarily and mainly upon fear.
- Bertrand Russell
I have a problem with people who take the Constitution loosely and the Bible literally.
- Bill Maher
Do you become spiritual by performing ceremonies and rituals…? Ceremonies and rituals sometimes give a certain sensation, so-called uplift. But they are repetitious, and every sensation that is repeated soon wearies of itself.
