More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
We do not depend upon any external help in meditation.
Swami Vivekananda
How do you know what possibilities lie behind that degradation on the surface? You know but little of that which is within you. For behind you is the ocean of infinite power and blessedness.
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of practice is worth a thousand pounds of theory.
Swami Vivekananda
Neither seek nor avoid, take what comes.
Swami Vivekananda
The present is determined by our past actions, and the future by the present.
Swami Vivekananda
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Swami Vivekananda
Stand in that reverent attitude to the whole universe, and then will come perfect non attachment.
Swami Vivekananda
He whom the sages have been seeking in all these places is in our own hearts the voice that you heard was right, says Vedanta, but the direction you gave to the voice was wrong.
Swami Vivekananda
True religion comes not front the teaching of men or the reading of books it is the awakening of the spirit within us, consequent upon pure and heroic action.
Swami Vivekananda
Is there any sex-distinction in the Atman (Self)? Out with the differentiation between man and woman—all is Atman! Give up the identification with the body, and stand up!
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the apex of the only world we can ever know.
Swami Vivekananda
It's the coward who says, 'This is fate'...It's the strong who stands up & says 'I will make my fate'
Swami Vivekananda
Everything must be sacrificed, if necessary, for that one sentiment: universality.
Swami Vivekananda
Unselfishness is God. One may live on a throne, in a golden palace, and be perfectly unselfish and then he is in God. Another may live in a hut and wear rags, and have nothing in the world yet, if he is selfish, he is intensely merged in the world.
Swami Vivekananda
A nation is not to be judged by its weaklings called the wicked, as they are only the weeds which lag behind, but by the good, the noble, and the pure, who indicate the national life current flowing clear and vigorous.
Swami Vivekananda
All change is in the screen.
Swami Vivekananda
If you really want the good of others, the whole universe may stand against you and cannot hurt you. It must crumble before your power of the Lord Himself in you if you are sincere and really unselfish.
Swami Vivekananda
Renunciation is always the ideal of every race only other races do not know what they are made to do by nature unconsciously.
Swami Vivekananda
The Buddha is not a person but a (state of) realization to which anyone can attain.
Swami Vivekananda
From attachment comes longing, and longing breeds anger. From anger comes delusion, and from delusion, confused memory. From confused memory comes the ruin of discrimination and from the ruin of discrimination, a man perishes.
Swami Vivekananda
