Quotations
Religion
"There is nothing like a vice or a virtue" and it has been said many a times in the
Bhagavad Gita by Krishna himself. Then why do these saints keep frightening
us everyday by reading out the long list of vices?
-Deep Trivedi
Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
-Deep Trivedi
The biggest trick that we, the religious gurus have played is; the ones who came
to destroy us, we placed them only as gods before you. Now say, how could our
shutters ever be pulled down?
-Deep Trivedi
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 "Tao Te Ching 14"
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
-Albert Einstein
The world is divided into men who have wit and no religion and men who have religion and no wit.
-Avicenna
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.
-Thomas Paine
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
-Abraham Lincoln
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
-David Mitchell
