More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
We have none of us seen a form which had not a beginning and will not have an end.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything that occupies space has form. The formless can only be infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
God is not to be reached by the weak. Never be weak. You have infinite strength within you. How else will you conquer anything? How else will you come to God?
Swami Vivekananda
There cannot be friendship without equality.
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
The main feature should be the teaching of principles through stories. Don't make it metaphysical at all.
Swami Vivekananda
A golden chain is as much a chain as an iron one. Shri Ramakrishna used to say that, to pick out one thorn which has stuck into the foot, another thorn is requisitioned, and when the thorn is taken out, both are thrown away. So the bad tendencies are to be counteracted by the good ones, but after that, the good tendencies have also to be conquered.
Swami Vivekananda
The great lesson is, that unity is behind all. Call it God, Love, Spirit. Allah, Jehovah - it is the same unity that animates all life from the lowest animal to the noblest man.
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
There is no virtue higher than non-injury.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion, in India, means realisation and nothing short of that.
Swami Vivekananda
The moment I have realized God sitting in the temple of every human body, the moment I stand in reverence before every human being and see God in him - that moment I am free from bondage, everything that binds vanishes, and I am free.
Swami Vivekananda
It is fear that is the cause of our woes, and it is fearlessness that brings heaven in a moment The earth is enjoyed by heroes - this is the unfailing truth.
Swami Vivekananda
You yourself are to blame. This weeping and wailing and knocking your heads into corners [against brick walls, as it were] will not do you the least good.
Swami Vivekananda
Society does not go down because of the activities of criminals, But because of the inactivities of the good people.
Swami Vivekananda
Perfection is always infinite. We are the Infinite already. You and I, and all beings, are trying to manifest that infinity.
Swami Vivekananda
Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
Your way is the best for you, but that is no sign it is the best for another.
Swami Vivekananda
Infinite patience, infinite purity, and infinite perseverance are the secret of success in a good cause.
Swami Vivekananda
This earth is higher than all the heavens this is the greatest school in the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
