assurances and blessings you still need for your life.

Quotations
Religion
I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
-Philip Pullman

-Karl Marx
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system.

and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.

It is easy to talk on religion, but difficult to practice it.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The one who on demand of time, situation and circumstances can carry out an
act whenever, whatever, however is necessary for the benefit of all...is religious;
the rest all are irreligious.
-Deep Trivedi
Hatred and contempt, be it for a thing or a person, has no place in the 'Hindu'
religion... Whereas these so-called Hindu saints are building number of ashrams
by inculcating the unnecessary feeling of 'sinfulness' in you. What kind of Hindu
are you and what kind of saints are these?
-Deep Trivedi
We are religious gurus. What do we do? Whatever you do, we brand it as a
sin... Meaning, despite being dependent on your donations, we abuse you. Still
this skill of ours works...because there is no dearth of intelligent people in this
world.
-Deep Trivedi
