More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Life without death and happiness without misery are contradiction and neither can be found alone, because each of them is a different manifestation of the same thing.
Swami Vivekananda
Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the Truth.
Swami Vivekananda
One possessing Vairagya does not understand by Atman the individual ego but the All-pervading Lord, residing as the Self and Internal Ruler in all. He is perceivable by all as the sum total.
Swami Vivekananda
A man could be in a throne and have no attachment at all another one could be in rags and have many attachments.
Swami Vivekananda
What can be my highest idea of forgiveness? Nothing beyond myself. Which of you can jump out of your own bodies? Which of you can jump out of your own minds? Not one of you.
Swami Vivekananda
Where no bondage is, there is no cause and effect.
Swami Vivekananda
Astrology and all these mystical things are generally signs of a weak mind
Swami Vivekananda
Perfect sincerity, holiness, gigantic intellect, and all-conquering will. Let only a handful of men work with these, and the whole world will be revolutionized.
Swami Vivekananda
Man's free agency is not of the mind, for that is bound. There is no freedom there.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything is easy when you are busy. But nothing is easy when you are lazy.
Swami Vivekananda
Anything that is in space has form. Space itself has form. Either you are in space, or space is in you. The soul is beyond all space. Space is in the soul, not the soul in space.
Swami Vivekananda
The essence of our Faith consists simply in this freedom of the Ishta.
Swami Vivekananda
Wait with patience and love and strength. If helpers are not ready now, they will come in time. Why should we be in a hurry? The real working force of all great work is in its almost unperceived beginnings.
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
It is the nature of the brute to remain where he is (not to progress) it is the nature of man to seek good and avoid evil it is the nature of God to seek neither, but just to be eternally blissful. Let us be God!
Swami Vivekananda
In a conflict between the heart and the brain, follow your heart.
Swami Vivekananda
Our Soul is a spark of the Divine. It is pure and perfect. Evil deeds merely obstruct our vision of the true nature of our Soul. Through good deeds we can become conscious of this perfection again.
Swami Vivekananda
Alcohol is not the answer to all questions
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of practice is worth a thousand pounds of theory.
Swami Vivekananda
Superstition is great enemy of man but bigotry is worse.
