Quotations
Religion

The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong
deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the
person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
- Deep Trivedi
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
