If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Religion
We are religious gurus. What do we do? Whatever you do, we brand it as a
sin... Meaning, despite being dependent on your donations, we abuse you. Still
this skill of ours works...because there is no dearth of intelligent people in this
world.
-Deep Trivedi
In the past 50 years, what joy and happiness has been offered by the politicians
and religious heads to the people of our country? And in comparison, what is
it that has not been bestowed by our legendary singers like Mohammed Rafi,
Kishore Kumar or Lata - Asha... Thanks to their voices, even today people get to
live a life of bliss and serenity for at least two hours a day.
-Deep Trivedi
A prophet is not someone with special visions, just someone blind to most of what others see.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.
-Mahatma Gandhi
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
-Deep Trivedi
What looks like politics, and imagines itself to be political, will one day unmask itself as a religious movement.
-Søren Kierkegaard
The biggest scourges of human life are fear, false hopes and dependency.
Thanks to the so-called religious hypocrisies, you do not get anything else but
these three.
-Deep Trivedi
There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.
-George Bernard Shaw
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
-Dwight Lyman Moody
