I had a thousand questions to ask God; but when I met him they all fled and didn't seem to matter.
-Christopher Morley
"Inward Ho!"
Quotations
Religion
The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion.
-Karl Marx
Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.
-Oscar Wilde
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
-George Carlin
Question is, why did the truly "intelligent" people distance themselves from
the great personalities like Krishna, Jesus and Buddha? Because, in order to
strengthen their individual businesses, religious gurus associated miracles with
them. Now, an intelligent person may agree with anything but can never accept
'miracles'.
-Deep Trivedi
The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.
-Dalai Lama Xiv
Only that, which influences everyone everywhere equally is the blessing of God
like sun, moon, air, water and human life. How could having different scriptures
and diverse beliefs for various religions ever be termed as being religious?
-Deep Trivedi
God has no religion.
-Mahatma Gandhi
Nothing is more disastrous for a human being than 'self-reproach'. Right from
self-confidence to your existence, it shatters everything. Yet these religious
gurus, ignorant of this science of mind, in order to run their businesses keep
feeding the feeling of sinfulness in people.
-Deep Trivedi
We are so interested in religion that first we put the person who has come to
awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
-Deep Trivedi
