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
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
I hate organized religion. I hate that people use it to justify their crappy, bigoted beliefs.

"Saving June"
We are so interested in religion that first we put the person who has come to
awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
-Deep Trivedi
The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion.
-Karl Marx
Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.
-Fulton J. Sheen
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

-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
The biggest scourges of human life are fear, false hopes and dependency.

these three.
