More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
This World will always continue to be a mixture of Good and Evil. Our duty is to sympathize with the weak and to Love even the wrongdoer.
Swami Vivekananda
In Shankaracharya we saw tremendous intellectual power, throwing the scorching light of reason upon everything.
Swami Vivekananda
The cheerful mind perseveres and the strong mind hews its way through a thousand difficulties.
Swami Vivekananda
We have to keep the body in good health we have to take care of what we eat and drink, and what we do.
Swami Vivekananda
This doctrine of prenatal influence is now slowly being recognized, and science as well as religion calls out: 'Keep yourself holy, and pure.' So deeply has this been recognized in India, that there we even speak of adultery in marriage, except when marriage is consummated in prayer.
Swami Vivekananda
Arise! Awake! and stop not until the goal is reached.
Swami Vivekananda
I am persuaded that a leader is not made in one life. He has to be born for it. For the difficulty is not in organisation and making plans the test, the real test, of the leader, lies in holding widely different people together along the line of their common sympathies. And this can only be done unconsciously, never by trying.
Swami Vivekananda
Superhuman power is not strong enough.
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
The Buddha is not a person but a (state of) realization to which anyone can attain.
Swami Vivekananda
Art is - representing the beautiful. There must be Art in everything.
Swami Vivekananda
Everybody is changing.
Swami Vivekananda
Manushya (man) is a being with Manas (mind) and as soon as his thinking power goes, he becomes no better than an animal.
Swami Vivekananda
Each nation has a theme: everything else is secondary. India's theme is religion.
Swami Vivekananda
Be an atheist if you want, but do not believe in anything unquestioningly.
Swami Vivekananda
You must have an iron will, if you would cross the ocean. You must be strong enough to pierce mountains.
Swami Vivekananda
Whenever two particles come together, they are held by a certain attraction and there will come a time when those particles will separate. This is the eternal law. So, wherever there is a body - either grosser or finer, either in heaven or on earth - death will overcome it.
Swami Vivekananda
Good works are continually being undone by the tons of hatred and anger which are being poured out on the world.
Swami Vivekananda
A man must not only have faith but intellectual faith too. To make a man take up everything and believe it, would be to make him a lunatic.
Swami Vivekananda
Throw overboard all idea of jealousy and egotism, once for all. Come on to the practical field with tremendous energy to work, in the fullness of strength! As to the rest, the Lord will point out the way.
Swami Vivekananda
