More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Form and formless are intertwined in this world. The formless can only be expressed in form and form can only be thought with the formless.
Swami Vivekananda
Books are only made so that they may point the way to a higher life but no good results unless the path is trodden with unflinching steps!
Swami Vivekananda
In India, religious life forms the centre, the keynote of the whole music of national life.
Swami Vivekananda
Each one of you has a glorious future if you dare believe me. Have a tremendous faith in yourselves, like the faith I had when I was I was young... Have that faith, each one of you, in yourself - that eternal power is lodged in every soul - and you will revive the whole of India.
Swami Vivekananda
Service to man is service to god
Swami Vivekananda
Let him who has courage in his mind and love in his heart come with me. I want none else.
Swami Vivekananda
God is cruel and not cruel. He is all being and not being at the same time. Hence He is all contradictions. Nature also is nothing but a mass of contradictions.
Swami Vivekananda
Do you have the belief in you to move on, even when the whole world is against you, with swords in their hands?
Swami Vivekananda
Impurity is a mere superimposition under which your real nature has become hidden. But the real you is already perfect, already strong.
Swami Vivekananda
Give up the awful disease that is creeping into our national blood, that idea of ridiculing everything, that loss of seriousness. Give that up. Be strong and have this Shraddha, and everything else is bound to follow.
Swami Vivekananda
In nature alone are forms. That which is not of nature cannot have any forms, fine or gross. It must be formless.
Swami Vivekananda
Eka-Nishtha or devotion to one ideal is absolutely necessary for the beginner in the practice of religious devotion.
Swami Vivekananda
Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
Have charity towards all beings. Pity those who are in distress. Love all creatures. Do not be jealous of anyone. Look not to the faults of others.
Swami Vivekananda
To succeed, you must have tremendous perserverance... tremendous will. I will drink the ocean, says the perservering soul at my will mountains will crumble. Have that sort of energy, that sort of will work hard, and you will reach the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
Man has infinite power within himself, and he can realise it - he can realise himself as the one infinite Self. It can be done but you do not believe it. You pray to God and keep your powder dry all the time.
Swami Vivekananda
Consciously or unconsciously, we are all striving for perfection. Every being must attain to it.
Swami Vivekananda
Thoughts are living things - they travel far.
Swami Vivekananda
The only test of goods things is that they make us strong.
Swami Vivekananda
Cowardice is no virtue.
Swami Vivekananda
