“The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend a personal God and avoid dogmas and theology.

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.
