More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
There is no motion in a straight line. A straight line infinitely projected becomes a circle.
Swami Vivekananda
Love and charity for the whole human race, that is the test of true religiousness.
Swami Vivekananda
If the poor boy cannot come to education, education must go to him
Swami Vivekananda
Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work - this is the only way. Go on remember - patience and purity and courage and steady work. . . . So long as you are pure, and true to your principles, you will never fail.
Swami Vivekananda
What we want is muscles of iron and nerves of steel. We have wept long enough. No more weeping, but stand on your feet and be men. It is man-making theories that we want. It is man-making education all round that we want.
Swami Vivekananda
Highest love for God can never be achieved without renunciation.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything which has name and form must die. If there are heavens with forms, these heavens must vanish in course of time they may last millions of years, but there must come a time when they will have to go.
Swami Vivekananda
If you are angry, and then happy, the next moment the anger passes away. Out of that anger you manufactured the next state. These states are always interchangeable. Eternal happiness and misery are a child's dream.
Swami Vivekananda
The finer the instrument, the greater the power. The mind is much finer and more powerful than the body.
Swami Vivekananda
The body and mind are dependent.
Swami Vivekananda
The benefits of knowledge can only be realized in practice.
Swami Vivekananda
How absurd to take the credit of doing the good act on oneself and lay the blame for the evil act on the Lord!
Swami Vivekananda
The Vedanta recognizes no sin it only recognizes error. And the greatest error, says the Vedanta is to say that you are weak, that you are a sinner, a miserable creature, and that you have no power and you cannot do this and that.
Swami Vivekananda
The more opposition there is, the better. Does a river acquire velocity unless there is resistance? The newer and better a thing is, the more opposition I will meet with at the outset. It is opposition which foretells success. Where there is no opposition there is no success either.
Swami Vivekananda
Brave, bold people, these are what we want.
Swami Vivekananda
Every work has got to pass through hundreds of difficulties before succeeding. Those that persevere will see the light, sooner or later.
Swami Vivekananda
Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.
Swami Vivekananda
It is only work that is done as freewill offering to humanity and to nature that does not bring with it any binding attachment.
Swami Vivekananda
The awakening of the soul to its bondage and its effort to stand up and assert itself - this is called life.
Swami Vivekananda
This craving for health, wealth, long life, and the like - the so - called good - is nothing but an illusion.
Swami Vivekananda
