"It's about religious acceptance, it's no longer about religious tolerance."

Acceptance

"Your mind is not merely the vehicle of God, rather it is the life-force that keeps God alive. Without the Mind, there is no God. Without you, there is no God."

Mind

"Any thought sequence that minimizes anxiety would get reinforced over time. The sequence would be maintained during the person's development and would be provoked in contexts where refutation of the belief might occur. So, any kind of refutation of a person's religious beliefs makes the beliefs only stronger."

Belief

"What one person calls miracle, I call nature."

Nature

"Education is the manifestation and evolution of the knowledge that is already inherent within you."

Education

"Give people films, they will forget after a few weeks, but give people ideas, they will assimilate them into their consciousness."

Idea

"The system that aims at educating our boys and girls in the same manner as in the circus where the trainer teaches the lion to sit on a stool, has not understood the true meaning of education itself. Instead of being like a circus where the trainer uses his stick to make animals do stunts to serve the interest of the audience, the system of education should be like an Orchestra where the conductor waves his stick to orchestrate the music already within the musicians' heart in the most beautiful manner. The teacher should be like the conductor in the orchestra, not the trainer in the circus."

Education

"Any book that spreads weakness in the heart of one gender, and authoritarianism in the other, must be burnt to ashes."

"Truth in the human world, is constructed, defined and then reconstructed by the human self."
