BEST QUOTES RELIGION, GOD, SPIRITUALITY- ALBERT EINSTEIN

QUOTES BY ALBERT EINSTEIN ABOUT RELIGION, GOD, SPIRITUALITY:


"I am a deeply religious nonbeliever. This is a somewhat new kind of religion."


"Before God we are all equally wise – 

and equally foolish."

"A religious person is devout in the sense that he has no doubt about the significance of those super personal objects and goals which neither require nor are capable of rational foundation."


"What really interests me is whether God had any choice in the creation of the world."


"The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge."


"True religion is real living; living with all one’s soul, with all one’s goodness and righteousness."


"My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind."


"My religiosity consists in a humble admiration of the infinitely superior spirit that reveals itself in the little that we, with our weak and transitory understanding, can comprehend of reality."


"Through the reading of popular scientific books, I soon reached the conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true. The consequence was a positively fanatic orgy of freethinking coupled with the impression that youth is intentionally being deceived by the state through lies; it was a crushing impression."


"Though I am now an old fogey, I am still hard at work and still refuse to believe that God plays dice."


"Strenuous intellectual work and looking at God’s nature are the reconciling, fortifying, yet relentlessly strict angels that shall lead me through all of life’s troubles."


"God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically."


"We should take care not to make the intellect our God; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality."


"I believe in Spinoza’s God, Who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God Who concerns Himself with the fate and the doings of mankind."


"Try and penetrate with our limited means the secrets of nature and you will find that, behind all the discernible concatenations, there remains something subtle, intangible and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion. To that extent I am, in point of fact, religious."


"That deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God."


"I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation and is but a reflection of human frailty."


"All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree."


"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods."


"God gave me the stubbornness of a mule and a fairly keen scent."

Thank you all for accepting me. Thank you very much. Well, I always start my talk with some disclaimer. And that disclaimer is that I never claimed to be a motivational speaker. Yes, I do speak. But I feel like a storyteller. Because where ever I go I share a story with everyone. I believe in the power of words. Many people speak before they think. But I know the value of words. Words can make you, break you, they can heal your soul, they can damage you forever. So, I always try to use positive words in my life. Wherever I go, they call it adversity, I call it opportunity. They call it a weakness, I call it strength. They call m

Sindhutai Sapkal - a ‘mother’ to over 1400 homeless children: Born on  born on 14 November, 1948 at  Pimpri Meghe  village in  Wardha  district of  Maharashtra, India. She was keen on completing her education and used Bharadi tree leaves to write as the family could not afford a slate. Her early marriage put an end to her desire to study. She got married at a tender age of 10 to a 30-year old man. Her abusive husband beat her up and threw her out of the house when she was 20 and nine-months pregnant. She gave birth to a baby girl in a cow shelter outside their house the same day and walked a few kilometres in that condition to her mother’s place, who refused to give shelter to her. “ I cut the umbilical cord with a sharp-edged stone lying nearby ,” she recalls. The incident deeply affected her and she thought of committing suicide, but gave up that thought and started begging at railway platforms for food to look after her daughter. As she spent more time begging, she realized t
