“True Religion is about taking care of those who are robbed and left on the road. True Religion is about giving water to those who are thirsty. It is about providing food for the hungry, sight for the blind, care for the sick, and encouragement for the dying and bereaved. It is about cleaning the body of a leper, living with the untouchables of society, and bringing communities together. True Religion is about being peacemakers rather than violence creators, standing up for the powerless in society, protecting the rights of women and children, and joining hands with all those who are doing good and standing in solidarity with the oppressed, the victimized and the forsaken.”
 
-Joseph D’souza President of Dalit Freedom Network
