“Religion means to know God and to love Him.”

“ 'I know of no other religion (Christianity) on earth where'... there is a God who even has love for the individual (A former Hindu)."~R. Alan Woods [2013]"I know of no other religion (Christianity) on earth where God has such an intense love for the individual." ~A former Hindu”

“If religion means primarily God-consciousness, or the realization of God both within and without, and secondarily a body of beliefs, tenets and dogmas, then, strictly speaking, there is but one religion in the world, for there is but one God.”

“The true basis of religion is not belief, but intuitive experience. Intuition is the soul’s power of knowing God. To know what religion is really all about, one must know God.”

“And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.”

“Nature is what we know. We do not know the gods of religions. And nature is not kind, or merciful, or loving. If God made me — the fabled God of the three qualities of which I spoke: mercy, kindness, love — He also made the fish I catch and eat. And where do His mercy, kindness, and love for that fish come in? No; nature made us — nature did it all — not the gods of the religions.[October 2, 1910, interview in the NY Times Magazine]”
