Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.
-Deep Trivedi
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.

-Napoleon Bonaparte "Napoleon Bonaparte"
How profound is your religious depth can be assessed from the number of
assurances and blessings you still need for your life.
