People fight over religion, because they don't understand religion. They think reading a few Bibles, Qurans and Vedas makes them religious. Books are not religion my friend. Real religion is realization of the Self.

People fight over religion, because they don't understand religion. They think reading a few Bibles, Qurans and Vedas makes them religious. Books are not religion my friend. Real religion is realization of the Self.The more you read about a subject, the more you know about it.

If you read just a little bit about a subject, your knowledge of it will be minimal. When you read a lot about a subject, your knowledge of it will be complete. The more you get to know about any subject, the better you get at understanding the subject.

Religion is often misunderstood by people. Many think that reading a few books can make them spiritual. But if people only understood what real spirituality was, they would realize that spirituality does not come from reading books and memorizing religious texts in general and religious texts in particular.

Religion is something that comes from within.
