Once your mind begins to wrap itself around an all-inclusive God, you are truly escaping religion.
To see God without illusions, We've had to overturn conventional religion.
When the missionaries came to Africa they had Bible and we had the land. They said, "Let us pray." We closed our eyes. When we opened them we had the Bible and they had the land.
It is in our lives and not our words that our religion must be read.
To devote your life to the good of all and to the happiness of all is religion. Whatever you do for your own sake is not religion.
Mystification is simple; clarity is the hardest thing of all.
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very efficient. There's a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning.
If you can bring your consciousness, your awareness, your intelligence to the act, if you can be spontaneous, then there is no need for any other religion, life itself will be the religion.
