Quotations
Religion
When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.
-Robert M. Pirsig
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"
Religion in fact is not knowledge, but a faith and aspiration.
-Sri Aurobindo
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
-George Carlin
I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.
-Mahatma Gandhi
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
-Deep Trivedi
How profound is your religious depth can be assessed from the number of
assurances and blessings you still need for your life.
-Deep Trivedi
The religious scriptures are thousands of years old. Don't know since when
they have been engaged in the upliftment of mankind. But still, considering the
enormity of the pains and problems of human beings, they have been proved
miserable failures. Now, it is high time...that new ways of thinking be adopted.
-Deep Trivedi
A religious person knows how to embrace things in a right manner; an irreligious
person simply renounces things out of "fear".
-Deep Trivedi
