We can reject everything else: religion, ideology, all received wisdom. But we cannot escape the necessity of love and compassion. This, then, is my true religion, my simple faith.

All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion, and forgiveness. The important thing is they should be part of our daily lives.

Love and Compassion are the true religions to me. But to develop this, we do not need to believe in any religion.

The purpose of all the major religious traditions is not to construct big temples on the outside, but to create temples of goodness and compassion inside, in our hearts.

Whatever our religion, we know that if we really want to love, we must first learn to forgive before anything else.

I think I have discovered the highest good. It is love.
