More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Here in this blessed land, the foundation, the backbone, the life-centre is religion and religion alone.
Swami Vivekananda
This body is a combination. It is only a fiction to say that I have one body, you another, and the sun another.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the subjective world that rules the objective. Change the subject, and the object is bound to change purify youreslf, and the world is bound to be purified.
Swami Vivekananda
It is always for greater joy that you give up the lesser. This is practical religion-the attainment of freedom, renunciation. Renounce the lower so that you may get the higher. Renounce! Renounce! Sacrifice! Give up! Not for zero. Not for nothing. But to get the higher.
Swami Vivekananda
There is this difference between the love taught by Christianity and that taught by Hinduism: Christianity teaches us to love our neighbours as we should wish them to love us Hinduism asks us to love them as ourselves, in fact to see ourselves in them.
Swami Vivekananda
In India, religious life forms the centre, the keynote of the whole music of national life.
Swami Vivekananda
Gita and Ganga constitute the essence of Hinduism one its theory and the other its practice.
Swami Vivekananda
Know that the mind which is born to succeed joins itself to a determined will and perseveres.
Swami Vivekananda
You cannot take away one atom of matter or one foot-pound of force. You cannot add to the universe one atom of matter or one foot-pound of force. As such, evolution does not come out of zero then, where does it come from? From previous involution.
Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
If a piece of burning charcoal be placed on a man’s head, see how he struggles to throw it off. Similar will be the struggle for freedom of those who really understand that they are slaves of nature.
Swami Vivekananda
The law of Karma is the law of causation.
Swami Vivekananda
He who conquers self conquers all.
Swami Vivekananda
This caste system had grown by the practice of the son always following the business of the father.
Swami Vivekananda
Prana, according to the Vedanta, is the principle of life. It is like ether, an omnipresent principle and all motion, either in the body or anywhere else, is the work of this Prana. It is greater than Akasha, and through it everything lives. Prana is in the mother, in the father, in the sister, in the teacher, Prana is the knower.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is a degeneration of what he was.
Swami Vivekananda
Anything that brings spiritual, mental, or physical weakness, touch it not with the toes of your feet.
Swami Vivekananda
The greatest sin is to think yourself weak
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith in yourselves, great convictions are the mother of great deeds.
Swami Vivekananda
Mind you, there is no value in learning. You are all mistaken in learning. The only value of knowledge is in the strengthening, the disciplining, of the mind.
Swami Vivekananda
