Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.

For a week, you just closely observe the vibrations arising in your mind, events
unfolding around you and the functioning of nature. You will realize that other
than your false hopes and unfounded fears, no one needs "God".
-Deep Trivedi
The Gods gave a microbe a drop of water, and in it he lived. They gave an ant a half acre of land, and he prospered. They gave a tiger the forest and he formed an empire and became an emperor. They gave man the Universe and all the knowledge therein. He entered of his own free will the dungeon of Dogma, shut his mind to truth and slew and starved his brothers.
I hadn't stopped believing in God. I'd just stopped believing God cared. There might be a God, and there might be not. Either way, we're on our own.
-Cassandra Clare

You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.
-Swami Vivekananda
The sincere devotee loves God deeply whether he is non-active and silently meditating on God, or in the midst of a whirl of outer activities.
All men are children, and of one family. The same tale sends them all to bed, and wakes them in the morning.
-Henry David Thoreau
If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans.
-Woody Allen
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
-Swami Vivekananda
In this world, there are only two kinds of people who can be happy and successful.
One, who believe that God is almighty...then whatever good - bad, sin - virtue,
all is happening as per his will; the matter ends. Second, who believe that God
doesn't exist at all and take up all their responsibilities by themselves, again the
matter ends. But since all of us are stuck hanging between the two, we end up
being sad and unsuccessful.
-Deep Trivedi
