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

Quotations
Religion

-Garrison Keillor
I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.
-Mahatma Gandhi
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

When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
