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.
Religion is something infinitely simple, ingenuous... In the infinite extent of the universe, it is a direction of the heart.
-Rainer Maria Rilke
Don't know why religious people and their religious sentiments are so weak that
they get hurt every now and then... As such it is understandable, the slightest
tremor is enough to cause the debilitated structures to collapse.
-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
"he October Country"
What looks like politics, and imagines itself to be political, will one day unmask itself as a religious movement.
-Søren Kierkegaard
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
Why does a human being have to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian or Buddhist?
Because lacking individuality, he is afraid of standing alone in the crowd...
Whereas, being a "Hindu" he feels a sense of security that one billion people are
there with him. The same is the psychology of Muslims, Christians and Buddhists
too.
-Deep Trivedi
Religion is based primarily and mainly upon fear.
-Bertrand Russell
Why did the intelligent people of the world lose interest in religion? Because
instead of the talks and teachings of Buddha, Jesus and Krishna, they were
presented with the Bible and Vedas concocted by the religious gurus.
-Deep Trivedi
When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within.
-Charles H. Spurgeon
