Nothing is more disastrous for a human being than 'self-reproach'. Right from

feeding the feeling of sinfulness in people.
-Deep Trivedi

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
The whole world is so-called religious...barring a few intellectuals. But then
where does all the anger, miseries, worries, envy, hatred and failure come from?
... Because, conquering all these feelings is only religiousness.
-Deep Trivedi
