Quotations
Religion
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
Neither the ones who have created enormous wealth under the shade of religion,
nor the ones who have relinquished wealth for religion can be called 'free from
worldly attachments'.
-Deep Trivedi
Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?
-Deep Trivedi
It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are 20 gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
-Thomas Jefferson
Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.
-Fulton J. Sheen
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
-Deep Trivedi
Don’t tell me about your god with your words. Show me about your god with your actions.
-Steve Maraboli
"Life, the Truth, and Being Free"
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.
-Voltaire
The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.
-Dalai Lama Xiv
