I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
-Philip Pullman
Quotations
Religion
There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.
-George Bernard Shaw
What is religion? The science of mind and life. Who are Buddha, Krishna and
Christ? The doctors of our mind and life.
-Deep Trivedi
One of the truly bad effects of religion is that it teaches us that it is a virtue to be satisfied with not understanding.
-Richard Dawkins
"The God Delusion"
Earlier our spending was only confined to offerings made at the temples. But
now, the greediness of the priests have increased so much that in the name of
assurances, they have been robbing people by selling rings, holy threads and
religious rites and rituals.
-Deep Trivedi
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
-Dalai Lama
Universal religion has no location in time or space. Its area is infinite, like the God it preaches. It is an experience. It is God-consciousness… All religions are challenged today by a common enemy: the rising tide of skepticism and secularism.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Nikhilananda"
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
'Yes' is theism and 'No' is atheism. In life the number of things that you have firmly
abstained from...shows how irreligious you are. The meaning of irreligiousness
itself is the denial of God's creations.
-Deep Trivedi
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.
-Thomas Paine
