-Richard Francis Burton
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa"
Question is, why did the truly "intelligent" people distance themselves from

'miracles'.
-Deep Trivedi
Religions grow when religious leaders die.
-J. Krishnamurti
Far better it is for you to say: I am a sinner, than to say: I have no need of religion. The empty can be filled, but the self-intoxicated have no room for God.
