and sannyasins?
-Deep Trivedi
All religions must be tolerated... for every man must get to heaven in his own way.

in understanding all the other truths of life. This is the reason why the world is full
of mentally and intelligently blind people.

world.

-C. S. Lewis "C. S. Lewis"
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy
and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
