Quotations
Religion
We sing the glory of Sri Krishna, who is all truth, all consciousness and all bliss, who is responsible for creation, sustenance and destruction of the universe, and who puts an end to the threefold agony.
- Scriptures
The word Christianity is already a misunderstanding - in reality there has been only one Christian, and he died on the Cross.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
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
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

Hindu religion, where all gods are "kings" meaning the ones who look after the

It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
- Albert Einstein
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
All the religions of the world may be good and true. But situated as we are, our own religion is the best for us.
- D. S. Sarma
One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.
- Thomas Paine
