Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.
-Voltaire
Quotations
Religion
Since like a horse you have blind-folded yourself from both the sides, you cannot
see anything other than your own religion and culture; and that is why, your
religious gurus have been feeding you dry grass covering your eyes with green
glasses.
-Deep Trivedi
It is easy to talk on religion, but difficult to practice it.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The first sign that you are becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful.
-Swami Vivekananda
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!"
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
-Seneca the Younger "Seneca the Younger"
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
All religions exhort us to cleanse the heart of malice, greed, hate and anger. All religions hold out the gift of Grace as the prize for success in this cleaning process.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate
our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being
clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper.
This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and
positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it
is for you.
-Deep Trivedi
The world holds two classes of men - intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence.
-Abu'l Ala Al Ma'arri
