More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Everything must be sacrificed, if necessary, for that one sentiment: universality.
Swami Vivekananda
Know this also to be one of the spiritual practices, a discipline for God - realisation. Its aim also is Self - realisation.
Swami Vivekananda
The more we grow in love and virtue and holiness, the more we see love and virtue and holiness outside. All condemnation of others really condemns ourselves. Adjust the microcosm (which is in your power to do) and the macrocosm will adjust itself for you. It is like the hydrostatic paradox, one drop of water can balance the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Ignorance is death, Knowledge is life.
Swami Vivekananda
Tell the truth boldly, whether it hurts or not. Never pander to weakness. If truth is too much for intelligent people and sweeps them away, let them go the sooner the better.
Swami Vivekananda
Every individual has in himself perfection. It lies within the dark recesses of his physical being.
Swami Vivekananda
Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.
Swami Vivekananda
The sum total of all the cells in an organism is one person so each soul is like one cell and the sum of them is God, and beyond that is the Absolute.
Swami Vivekananda
There is but one temple - the body. It is the only temple that ever existed.
Swami Vivekananda
The sign of death is weakness.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no help for you outside of yourself you are the creator of the universe. Like the silkworm you have built a cocoon around yourself.... Burst your own cocoon and come out as the beautiful butterfly, as the free soul. Then alone you will see Truth.
Swami Vivekananda
Be grateful that the poor man is there, so that by making a gift to him you are able to help yourself
Swami Vivekananda
Worship of society and popular opinion is idolatry.
Swami Vivekananda
You must keep a strict eye on your health let everything else be subordinated to that.
Swami Vivekananda
The test of Ahimsa is absence of jealousy.
Swami Vivekananda
Though an atom is invisible, unthinkable, yet in it are the whole power and potency of the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Marriage or non-marriage, good or evil, learning or ignorance, any of these is justified, if it leads to the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
What we want is progress, development, realisation.
Swami Vivekananda
Where you find the attraction for lust and wealth considerably diminished, to whatever creed he may belong, know that his inner spirit is awakening.
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
