Quotations
Religion
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
- Nassim Nicholas Taleb
I’ll wear two swords, a sword of shakti (power) and a sword of bhakti (meditation).
- A Spiritual Leader
Religions grow when religious leaders die.
- J. Krishnamurti
Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.
- Deep Trivedi
Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same
time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand
that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
- Deep Trivedi
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
- Ray Bradbury
Earlier our spending was only confined to offerings made at the temples. But
now, the greediness of the priests have increased so much that in the name of
assurances, they have been robbing people by selling rings, holy threads and
religious rites and rituals.
- Deep Trivedi
When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.
- Robert M. Pirsig
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.
- Thomas Paine
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
- George Carlin
