-Deb Caletti
"The Nature of Jade"
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
-Dalai Lama
Don’t tell me about your god with your words. Show me about your god with your actions.

"Life, the Truth, and Being Free"
Those who are ignorant of the supreme purpose of life will never be able to attain nirvana (liberation) in spite of their observance of the vratas (vows) and niyamas (rules) of religious conduct and practice of shila (celibacy) and tapas (penance).

-Christopher Paolini

-Bill Maher
The religious scriptures are thousands of years old. Don't know since when
they have been engaged in the upliftment of mankind. But still, considering the

miserable failures. Now, it is high time...that new ways of thinking be adopted.
-Deep Trivedi
