Religion has nothing to do with God, worship, temples, mosques or churches;
it is directly related only to the teachings that take the human mind to newer

failures of his life. The one who entrusts it to rituals, worship, astrology, family or
friends...is irreligious.

In the past 50 years, what joy and happiness has been offered by the politicians
and religious heads to the people of our country? And in comparison, what is
it that has not been bestowed by our legendary singers like Mohammed Rafi,

live a life of bliss and serenity for at least two hours a day.
-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
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
