Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.
-Oscar Wilde
Quotations
Religion
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
-Albert Einstein
The first sign that you are becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful.
-Swami Vivekananda
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
All the religions of the world may be good and true. But situated as we are, our own religion is the best for us.
-D. S. Sarma
The whole world is so-called religious...barring a few intellectuals. But then
where does all the anger, miseries, worries, envy, hatred and failure come from?
... Because, conquering all these feelings is only religiousness.
-Deep Trivedi
The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong
deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the
person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
-Deep Trivedi
Hatred and contempt, be it for a thing or a person, has no place in the 'Hindu'
religion... Whereas these so-called Hindu saints are building number of ashrams
by inculcating the unnecessary feeling of 'sinfulness' in you. What kind of Hindu
are you and what kind of saints are these?
-Deep Trivedi
Religions grow when religious leaders die.
-J. Krishnamurti
I’ll wear two swords, a sword of shakti (power) and a sword of bhakti (meditation).
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Hargobind Singh"
