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

that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
-Deep Trivedi

-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa"
Religion is the impotence of the human mind to deal with occurrences it cannot understand.

us everyday by reading out the long list of vices?
-Deep Trivedi
