Quotations
Religion
If putting a 'tilak' on the forehead, wearing a holy thread on the wrist, offering
prayers five times a day or visiting a temple, mosque and church, you could
attain 'Dharma - the religion', the ultimate height of the world, then nothing is
cheaper than religion.
-Deep Trivedi
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
Hanuman is the breath of Rama, the breath of God. God is not far away from us but as close as our breath. Symbolically Hanuman represents the breath, our constant companion and aid along the spiritual path.
-A Spiritual Leader "Tulsidas"
Religions grow when religious leaders die.
-J. Krishnamurti
Religion is based primarily and mainly upon fear.
-Bertrand Russell
A prophet is not someone with special visions, just someone blind to most of what others see.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same
time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand
that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
-Deep Trivedi
Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.
-Lenny Bruce
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
