Quotes about Religion by Mata Amritanandamayi

  • When love overflows and is expressed through every word and deed, we call it compassion. That is the goal of religion.
  • There are thousands ready to die for their religion, but only are few willing to live by its principles. Because of their narrow vision and envy, they have missed the true essence and message of religion which is love and compassion.
  • Love is our true essence. Love has no limitations of caste, religion, race, or nationality. We are all beads strung together on the same thread of love. To awaken this unity-and to spread to others the love that is our inherent nature-is the true goal of human life.
