More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.
Swami Vivekananda
The correct meaning of the statement The Vedas are beginningless and eternal is that the law or truth revealed by them is permanent and changeless.
Swami Vivekananda
This life is a hard fact work your way through it boldly, though it may be adamantine no matter, the soul is stronger.
Swami Vivekananda
...oneness is the secret to everything.
Swami Vivekananda
He who is alone is happy. Do good to all, like everyone, but do not love anyone. It is a bondage, and bondage brings only misery. Live alone in your mind - that is happiness. To have nobody to care for and never minding who cares for one is the way to be free.
Swami Vivekananda
You are incarnations of God, all of you. You are incarnations of the Almighty, Omnipresent, Divine Principle. You may laugh at me now, but the time will come when you will understand. You must. Nobody will be left behind.
Swami Vivekananda
Superstitions are all materialism, because they are all based on the consciousness of body, body, body. No spirit there. Spirit has no superstitions - it is beyond the vain desires of the body.
Swami Vivekananda
Know for certain that there is no power in the universe to injure us unless we first injure ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
The brain and muscles must develop simultaneously. Iron nerves with an intelligent brain — and the whole world is at your feet.
Swami Vivekananda
All is the Self or Brahman. The saint, the sinner, the lamb, the tiger, even the murderer, as far as they have any reality, can be nothing else, because there is nothing else.
Swami Vivekananda
Stand up, be bold, and take the blame on your own shoulders. Do not go about throwing mud at others for all the faults you suffer from, you are the sole and only cause.
Swami Vivekananda
The calm man is not the man who is dull. You must not mistake Sattva for dullness or laziness. The calm man is the one who has control over the mind waves. Activity is the manifestation of inferior strength, calmness, of the superior.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion for a long time has come to be static in India. What we want is to make it dynamic. I want it to be brought into the life of everybody.
Swami Vivekananda
Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
My faith is in the younger generation, the modern generation. Out of them will come my workers. They will work out the whole problem like lions
Swami Vivekananda
So long as you have faith in your Guru, nothing will be able to obstruct your way.
Swami Vivekananda
Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work- this is the only way.
Swami Vivekananda
Self-love is the first teacher of self-renunciation.
Swami Vivekananda
To give up the world is to forget the ego, to know it not at all - living in the body, but not of it.
Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
