Swami Muktananda: "You mustn't believe in your own religion; I don't believe in mine. Religions are like the fences that hold young saplings erect. Without the fence the sapling could fall over. When it takes firm root and becomes a tree, the fence is no longer needed. However, most people never lose their need for the fence." (Source)
How is that for a mind blowing statement from a religious figure?
Of course like most religious figures he was not able to live up to his image.
Still I think the quote stands on its own as an obvious truth.
