Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
-Alan Watts
Quotations
God
Before leading your life depending upon God, just check, does he really have
the authority to be partial and do any good for you?
-Deep Trivedi
God... a being whose only definition is that he is beyond man's power to conceive.
-Ayn Rand
I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that God is so far away is because that is where we have put him. We have kept him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on him in prayer, we wonder where he is. He is exactly where we left him.
-Ravi Zacharias
"Has Christianity Failed You?"
Lord, give us joy in our families, and make us models for the rest.
-Quran "Quran 25.74"
The concept of "God" has come into existence because of fear. ‘Fear’ is the
offspring of insecurity and desire... The interesting part is, you don't need either
of these after death.
-Deep Trivedi
If you have men who will exclude any of God’s creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.
-Saint Francis of Assisi "St. Francis of Assisi"
Christ was crucified once, but his teachings suffer crucifixion every day at the hands of men of limited vision. Christ’s teachings cannot be understood just by reading the Bible…but by living and trying out in everyday life the principles taught in the book.
-A Spiritual Leader "Paramahansa Yogananda"
Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name.
-Bible "Luke 24:46-47"
Devotion to God’s Name is my lamp; In this lamp is poured the oil of suffering. The light of realisation burns away this oil…Vast loads of firewood are reduced to ashes by a tiny spark of fire.
-Scriptures "Adi Granth"
