- Voltaire
You look at it, but it is not to be seen; Its name is Formless. You listen to it, but it is not to be heard; Its name is Soundless. You grasp it, but it is not to be held; Its name is Bodiless. These three elude all scrutiny. And hence they blend and become one.
- Scriptures

it is directly related only to the teachings that take the human mind to newer
unprecedented heights.
- 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?

- Deep Trivedi

- Alan Watts
