nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.

Quotations
Religion
I have a problem with people who take the Constitution loosely and the Bible literally.
-Bill Maher
The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.
-Dalai Lama Xiv
Anyone who thinks sitting in church can make you a Christian must also think that sitting in a garage can make you a car.
-Garrison Keillor
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
I am a deeply religious nonbeliever - this is a somewhat new kind of religion.
-Albert Einstein
The foundation of Hindu religion has been laid on the pillar of tolerance. It
has revered all the rebels like Buddha, Kabira, Shankaracharya, Chanakya,
Dayanand Saraswati who had opposed the prevalent hypocrisies in their times.
It didn't kill them the way reformers like Jesus, Socrates or Mansoor were...
Then where did this Hindu fanaticism emerge from?... Perhaps in order to make
their businesses survive, it is being propagated by the Hindu religious heads.
-Deep Trivedi
A religious person is...the one who accepts the responsibility for the success and
failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.
-Deep Trivedi
God has no religion.
-Mahatma Gandhi
If you talk of the Hindu religion, majority of their avatars are worldly people...
Then how can these sannyasins be termed religious?
-Deep Trivedi
