Notable quotes

“Devotion may be compared to a chain with two extremities one of these is in the hand of the devotee and the other is in the hand of God. When the devotee draws the chain, God leaves Heaven and descends to the earth; when God draws the chain, the devotee enters into the kingdom of God even with his ego.”
— Paramahansa Maharshi Nagendranath Bhaduri, Extracts from precepts of Maharshi Nagendranath, The Levitating Saint [ His Life & Advices] - Translated by Prof. Tripurasankar Sen Shastri , Nagendra Mission, 2B Rammohan Roy Road, Kolkata -700 009,W.B, India, p. 32
“He took his time strapping on his customized armor and loading his weapon magazines, rifle, pistol, and assorted knives. For him, preparing for battle was a divine ritual, a blessing and sacrifice to the Holy Ones. He intended to show his devotion by expunging as many of the enemy as he could..”
— Wesley Chu, The Rebirths of Tao (2015), , p. 436
“The impurity of ignorance is in none so manifest as in the devout; for they act on their ignorance, and fill themselves and others with miserable scruples and hard thoughts of God, and are as apt to call good evil as other men are to call evil good.”
— Coventry Patmore, The Rod, the Root, and the Flower (London: George Bell and Sons, 1895), Knowledge and Science XVI, p. 70
