The role of religion is to make one righteous and loving. Politics means caring for people and their welfare. When religion and politics don’t coexist then you have corrupt politicians and pseudo-religious leaders.
I had a thousand questions to ask God; but when I met him they all fled and didn't seem to matter.

If they are compelled to do even farming, I promise that overnight the rate of
grains all across the world will almost be halved.

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?

I hate organized religion. I hate that people use it to justify their crappy, bigoted beliefs.

Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.

What is religion? The science of mind and life. Who are Buddha, Krishna and
Christ? The doctors of our mind and life.

failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.
-Deep Trivedi
