Since ages, there has been a nexus between the religious heads and politicians.
None of them are artists or scientists. Still oppressing and creating conflicts
among people, both have harboured ambitions to become big from the very
beginning. It has made their union so strong that they are inseparable now.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Religion
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
Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.
-Oscar Wilde
Whether we like it or not, the one justification for the existence of all religions is death, they need death as much as we need bread to eat.
-José Saramago
"Death with Interruptions"
We are not human beings on a spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings on a human journey.
-Stephen Covey
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
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
-Dwight Lyman Moody
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
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy
and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
-Deep Trivedi
The biggest trick that we, the religious gurus have played is; the ones who came
to destroy us, we placed them only as gods before you. Now say, how could our
shutters ever be pulled down?
-Deep Trivedi
