Quotations
Religion
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
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
- Deep Trivedi
One of the truly bad effects of religion is that it teaches us that it is a virtue to be satisfied with not understanding.
- Richard Dawkins
A priest once quoted to me the Roman saying that a religion is dead when the priests laugh at each other across the altar. I always laugh at the altar, be it Christian, Hindu, or Buddhist, because real religion is the transformation of anxiety into laughter.
- Alan Wilson Watts
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
- David Mitchell
The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
- Deep Trivedi
'Yes' is theism and 'No' is atheism. In life the number of things that you have firmly abstained from...shows how irreligious you are. The meaning of irreligiousness itself is the denial of God's creations.
- Deep Trivedi
The foundation of Hindu religion has been laid on the pillar of tolerance. It has revered all the rebels like Buddha, Kabira, Shankaracharya, Chanakya, Dayanand Saraswati who had opposed the prevalent hypocrisies in their times. It didn't kill them the way reformers like Jesus, Socrates or Mansoor were... Then where did this Hindu fanaticism emerge from?... Perhaps in order to make their businesses survive, it is being propagated by the Hindu religious heads.
- Deep Trivedi
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
- Nassim Nicholas Taleb
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
