Quotations
Religion

Myth is what we call other people's religion.

-Joseph Campbell

Those who are ignorant of the supreme purpose of life will never be able to attain nirvana (liberation) in spite of their observance of the vratas (vows) and niyamas (rules) of religious conduct and practice of shila (celibacy) and tapas (penance).



-Scriptures "Samayasara, 153"

We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper. This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it is for you.

-Deep Trivedi

What looks like politics, and imagines itself to be political, will one day unmask itself as a religious movement.

-Søren Kierkegaard

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

Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.

-Oscar Wilde

All religions exhort us to cleanse the heart of malice, greed, hate and anger. All religions hold out the gift of Grace as the prize for success in this cleaning process.



-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"

Only that, which influences everyone everywhere equally is the blessing of God like sun, moon, air, water and human life. How could having different scriptures and diverse beliefs for various religions ever be termed as being religious?

-Deep Trivedi

We must remember that the test of our religious principles lies not just in what we say, not only in our prayers, not even in living blameless lives - but in what we do for others

-Harry S. Truman

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 "he October Country"
