“A person has flaws but Jesus has none, quite like the images of models on billboards - you know why, because both images are doctored to sell a product - in case of the models, it's some cosmetic or some apparel, and in case of Jesus, it's religion.”

“If we take the lord to be an entity, then we must always place love above the lord, but if we take the lord to be an experience, then love is the lord.”

“Love and prayer are two different expressions of the same energy. Love is more earthly, whole prayer is more unearthly, but the experiences are the same. Love is more limited, because it aperson-to-person experience. Prayer is unlimited. It is from person to the impersonal existence.
In the beginning it is from the person to the impersonal existence, but when you relate deeper with impersonal existence, the person is lost. It is like a drop disappearing into the ocean. The drop loses its boundaries. It become the ocean. The old identity of the drop will be gone.
Many people think that they know what love is, but they do not know what love is. So how should they know about prayer, which is the highest form of love? Prayer is almost non-existential, and even love is experienced by very few people, because love also demands many essential things before they can experience it.
Love cannot coexist with jealousy, anger, violence, hate,ego, possessiveness and domination. These are allanti-love phenomenon, which will destroy the possibility of love.
To grow in real love one needs courage. Love challenges you. And you have to drop many things to become worthy of love. The first thing to drop is the ego. But we would like love with our ego intact. When love do not exist, then everything higher than love is impossible.
Prayer is the ultimate flowering of love. A man who knows love deeply, who has been able to drop his ego, will move towards prayer If loving one person is so beautiful, then how much more beautiful will it be to love the whole existence. That is prayer.
One need not believe in God to be able to pray. First one has to know love, then one has to know prayer and then Godis the third experience. True religiousness arises out ofl ove. Prayer is an overflowing love. And ultimately prayerreveals God to you.”

“Science and Religion (The Sonnet)
Science and Religion have no feud,
Both are expressions of naturalism.
The real feud has been between,
Intellectualism and fundamentalism.
Facts help us take the world forward,
Reason helps us treat primitiveness.
But facts and reason alone won't do,
Without warmth all matter is lifeless.
Of course there are flaws in religion,
In science too there's greed and bigotry.
If in religion we have extremist nuts,
We also have plenty of scientific bully.
Instead of picking on each other's mistake,
Let us be human across intellect and faith.”

“There are words I don't want to use, such as humanitarian, martyr and so on, but I am compelled to use them - you know why, because the society is incapable of grasping the gravitas of the word human.”

“If you think four little alphabets, w-o-k-e, can define civilized human life, you are as dumb as those you consider un-woke. It is another way to codify righteousness, just like the church does with the term "born again". Be human my friend - beyond wokeness - beyond religiousness - beyond intellectualism and all forms of binarism and sectarianism.”
