True God

1
 T rue G od

God and hell can’t exist

together.
Either there can be infinite
mercy or infinite curse, not
both.

2
 T rue G od

I won’t bow down to a God

who I can’t question.
I rather bow down where my
questions end.

3
 T rue G od

Calming slave of the God

is the insult of the God
who inspires us to be free from
all bondages!

4
 T rue G od

God doesn’t want rituals.

She wants actions.

5
 T rue G od

I would love a God that I can

question without fear.

6
 T rue G od

God won’t judge you on

which God you believe in.
She will judge you on what
you did to her creatures.

7
 T rue G od

God that can’t stand

disbelievers simply needs to
evolve.

8
 T rue G od

If God can break laws, she can

kill herself too.
So if God has to exist, she has
to abide by laws.

9
 T rue G od

Fools argue over

characteristics of God.
Wise live God through noble
actions.

10
 T rue G od

Superman can directly fly to

God. But if you are a human
seeking God, stay away from
meat, wine, lust.

11
 T rue G od

God does not need cult to

show his selflessness.
Cult needs God to hide its
selfishness.

12
 T rue G od

Given the way western faiths

define God, it is
definitely more reasonable to
be an atheist.
Given the way Vedas define
God, He is no more mere faith.
He is Science.

13
 T rue G od

Concept of a ‘just’ God is

guaranty of law & order.
Concept of ‘life is chemical
reaction’ is recipe to mess.
Because chemical reactions do
not believe in accountability.

14
 T rue G od

For a God sitting on a throne

on 7th sky,
I am atheist.
For a God who manages
Karma of souls and maintains
complete law & order based
on accountability,
I am a believer.

15
 T rue G od

My God is not Gabbar Singh

who would punish those who
do not donate and bow to the
Kaliaas he sends to Ramgarh
from time to time.

16
 T rue G od

My God is not a dictator like

Hitler or script-writer like
Salim-Javed.
He does not decide our fate.
We decide our fate.
He merely ensures that we get
what we decided.

17
True worhip

18
 T rue W orship

Worship is not about putting

your wish list to God.
It is about promising God to
fight till end to achieve your
goals.

19
 T rue W orship

A brave atheist who believes

in accountability is closer
to God than a coward theist
who commits sins and then
foolishly thinks that he will be
saved.

20
 T rue W orship

God doesn’t count how many

times you prayed.
God does not remember in
which words you prayed.
She only remembers whether
your words and actions
matched.

21
 T rue W orship

Prayer is not a replacement of

efforts. It’s a catalyst that
boosts the effectiveness of
your efforts.

22
 T rue W orship

There are innumerable forms

of entertainment.
But nothing is as satisfying as
worship.

23
 T rue W orship

God is closer to you then

yourself.
Don’t let world teach you
how you should pray.
Just go your own way.
Do it with your own words.
Do it your own time.

24
 T rue W orship

Bhakti without karma is

opium. Bhakti on foundation
of karma is recipe for Divya
Moksha.

25
 T rue W orship

Pray to complement your

actions, not substitute them.

26
 T rue W orship

An hour of Ishwar Dhyana

is the best gift you can give
yourself daily.
It is the most powerful way to
transform every aspect of life.

27
 T rue W orship

If you are not doing daily

Dhyana, you are missing soul
of Dharma.

28
 T rue W orship

Bhakti without Shakti will not

get you Mukti.

29
 S oul

Only glorification of God’s

qualities is not worship,
imbibing them in life is.

30
Soul

31
 S oul

Let mortals fear hellfire. I am

soul I am immortal.

32
 S oul

Soul is the greatest prophet,

greatest messenger, greatest
apostle.
Never be unfaithful to this
holy spirit.

33
 S oul

There has to be purpose

behind being scientific.

34
 S oul

No scripture is superior to
your own intellect.
No prophet is superior to your
own self.
No religion is superior to
humanity.

35
 S oul

Love is closeness of souls not

bodies.
Love does not bind.
It liberates.

36
Dharma - True Religion

37
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Follow Dharma based on

principles and reason,
and not looking at someone’s
clothes or designation.
“Principles above
personalities.”

38
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religions claim that

spiritualism begins where
logic ends.
Vedas say that one cannot
even think of reaching God
without logic.

39
 D harma - T rue R eligion

We have warriors who are not

Adhyatmic.
We have Adhyatmic saints
who are not warriors.
If you want both, and follow
real Krishna.

40
 D harma - T rue R eligion

In Eastern faiths, focus is on

exploring world within.
In Western faiths, focus is on
mimicking external orders.
The two cannot converge.

41
 D harma - T rue R eligion

We have a tendency to define

Dharma as per our
convenience.
It takes courage to define
ourselves as per Dharma.

42
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Dharma is immortal.
It always wins.
It is only us mortals who win
or lose.

43
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Vedas are not an initial point

but a final benchmark. Initial
point is pursuit of truth.

44
 D harma - T rue R eligion

True religion is defined as the

dedicated pursuit of timeless
noble principles that no one
can consider to be irrelevant
at any point in time.

45
 D harma - T rue R eligion

True religion is the one which

has eternal principles, logic
and truth.

46
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion that can’t stand

depth of criticism is most
shallow.

47
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion that can’t stand

logic is the most illogical.

48
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion that doesn’t believe

in equality is most
unbalanced.

49
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion that doesn’t have

vastness of philosophies is
most narrow.

50
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion becomes great by the

principles it holds, and not by
the claims of its followers.

51
 D harma - T rue R eligion

The real Dharma of human is

to show his humanity in his
actions.

52
 D harma - T rue R eligion

A religion that does not allow

use of brain is of no use.

53
 D harma - T rue R eligion

In Dharma, scriptures are to

guide you.
In cults, scriptures are to
threaten you.

54
 D harma - T rue R eligion

Religion is a organised chase

of blind assumptions. Vedic
Dharma is celebration of
freedom.

55
 D harma - T rue R eligion

By following which human

can show and practice his
humanity without fear is true
religion.

56
 D harma - T rue R eligion

The bonds of culture are

stronger than bonds of
religion.

57
 D harma - T rue R eligion

In Eastern faiths, focus is on

exploring world within. In
Western faiths, focus is on
mimicking external orders.
The two cannot converge.

58
Spirituality

59
 S piritualit y

In “spirituality” God
protects you.
In “religion” you protect
God.

60
 S piritualit y

Science with purpose is

spirituality.

61
 S piritualit y

Science tells
you what life is.
Spirituality tells
you why life is.

62
Master Mind

63
 M aster M ind

Be master of the mind not

slave.

64
 M aster M ind

Arbitrary judgement is
nothing but abuse of mind.

65
 M aster M ind

A liar cheats minds of others

and soul of his own! And then
he thinks he won!

66
 M aster M ind

Disbelief is no sin. Blind belief

is.

67
 M aster M ind

Any belief without a rational

or intuitive backing will result
in miseries.

68
 M aster M ind

The outside world is a

representation of your inner
realities.
To master the outside world,
win the world within.

69
 M aster M ind

You win in your mind first

then in the world.

70
 M aster M ind

Be the master of your mind

and success will be your slave.

71
 M aster M ind

The real cancer of mind is

being undisciplined about
your thoughts.

72
 M aster M ind

Like white dress, mind is

prone to dirt. Take extra
efforts to keep it shining and
pure.

73
 M aster M ind

Brain will find a way to

entertain itself. What options
you offer it defines your
character.

74
 M aster M ind

Mind gets its dynamism only

when hankering for sense
objects/ enjoyments ceases.
One enjoys only in the
Supreme and does his work.

75
 M aster M ind

West - I think, therefore I am

Vedas - I am, therefore I think.

76
 M aster M ind

Belief devoid of logic and

control of intellect is blind
belief.

77
 M aster M ind

When intellect is corrupt,

there is no use of having five
senses.

78
Knowledge

79
 K nowledge

Knowledge is not
memorization of fact.
Knowledge is a framework for
the mind.

80
 K nowledge

A knowledge not used is of no

use.

81
 K nowledge

I realised that knowledge is

best retained when it is brief
and part of your emotions.

82
 K nowledge

Knowledge is not noun, it is a

verb! And I don’t fear being
grammatically wrong!

83
 K nowledge

Don’t approach knowledge

as memorisation of fact.
Approach knowledge as a
framework for the mind.

84
 K nowledge

Information may cost a bit.

But feeling of true knowledge
is priceless.

85
 K nowledge

Actions full of knowledge

are the cure for all miseries.
Actions devoid of knowledge
are the reasons for all
miseries.

86
 K nowledge

Poverty is result of
intellectual bankruptcy.
Intellectual bankruptcy is
result of knowledge scarcity.

87
 K nowledge

Good fate is nothing but

result of right actions done
at the right time with right
knowledge.

88
 K nowledge

No caste, no social status, no

religion, only burning desire
to acquire knowledge makes
person eligible for acquiring
knowledge.

89
 K nowledge

When buying a good book, see

the power of knowledge and
not price of the book.

90
 K nowledge

Right to disbelieve is as
important as right to believe.

91
Truth

92
 T ruth

the first step towards realizing
the truth.

93
 T ruth

Analysis of truth never hurts.

It only paves the path towards
bliss!

94
 T ruth

Truth hurts only those who

are on path of ignorance.

95
 T ruth

“Truth” is not an
assumption.
It is a conclusion.

96
 T ruth

Truth is something you can

understand in mind and feel in
your heart.

97
 T ruth

Truth cannot be debated. It

can only be analysed and
experienced by sharp minds
and honest souls.
As you get sharper and more
honest, you see clear truth.

98
 T ruth

Truth is not spoken but lived!

99
 T ruth

Expressing the truth of the

situation as clearly as possible
is the sign of healthy
conversation.

100
 T ruth

You are ignorant if you don’t

know the truth, but you are
sinner if you ignore the truth.

101
Karma is Dharma

laws of humans. But you

Karma and worst will happen

About Agniveer
Agniveer was founded by Shri Sanjeev Newar, an IIT-IIM
professional, data scientist, and Yogi to provide a solu-
tion-oriented, spiritually driven, and honest approach to
improving the world - within and outside an individual.
Agniveer specializes in practical applications of timeless
wisdom of Vedas, Geeta, and Yoga to address the contem-
porary challenges of life. Thousands of testimonials of
transformation - from people who were on verge of com-
mitting suicide, fighting depression, confused about life,
directionless, unable to address social injustice around -
attest the massive change it has been able to bring.

Agniveer takes credit in bringing several ignored, uncom-

fortable but critical issues to public attention. Agniveer is
the leading advocate of social equality in India and pioneer
of ‘Dalit Yajna’ initiative to break caste and gender
barriers. Agniveer spearheaded the Muslim women rights
campaign facing severe backlash from conservative and
fanatic elements. Yet, it was successful in bringing details
of disgusting practices like Halala, sex-slavery, polygamy,
triple talaq and love jihad to limelight and evolving a
consensus against them. Agniveer women helpline deals
with such cases and has brought many smiles.

Agniveer also introduced the concept of unarmed

111
 A b out A gniveer

combat workshops across sensitive parts of country to

create a skilled team that is able to defend vulnerable from
criminals. Agniveer is a prominent champion of de-radi-
calization and has brought innumerable youth to join the
mainstream path. Agniveer’s narrative on history has
created a significant momentum to question the authentic-
ity of populist history taught out of political compulsions.

Agniveer has published several books on social equality,

caste equality, gender equality, human rights, the contro-
versial religious rights and history, apart from books on
self-help, Yoga, Hinduism, and life-hacks. Readers appre-
ciate the books for straightforward, original, solution-ori-
ented, practical, fresh, and mind-bending experience.
