समयोचितपद्यरत्नमालिका - भावे हि विद्यते देवः

न देवो विद्यते काष्ठे न पाषाणे न मृण्मये ।
भावे हि विद्यते देवस्तस्माद्भावो हि कारणम् ॥

- समयोचितपद्यरत्नमालिका

na devo vidyate kAShThe na pAShANe na mRuNmaye ।
bhAve hi vidyate devaH tasmAd bhAvo hi kAraNam ॥

- samayochitapadyaratnamAlikA

God can not be found in a wood piece, stone or a mud idol. It is the belief that makes us feel the presence of God. Hence, only the feeling matters – not the material.

गरुड पुराण - भयः

प्रारब्धव्ये निरुद्योगः जागर्तव्ये प्रसुप्तकः ।
विश्वस्तव्ये भयस्थाने हा नरः को न हन्यते ॥

- गरुड पुराण

prArabdhavye nirudyogaH jAgartavye prasuptakaH ।
vishvastavye bhayasthAne hA naraH ko na hanyate ॥

- garuDa purANa

Man does not do what he is meant to do. He sleeps when he should be alert. He is scared of things which he must believe (and vice-versa). This being the story, is there anything that can stop him from being destroyed (killed).
