Each soul is potentially divine.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Purusha is the great attraction of the universe though untouched by and unconnected with the universe, yet it attracts the whole universe.

If you dare declare that you are free, free you are this moment. If you say you are bound, bound you will remain.
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Image
Buddha and Christ were second-rate heroes. The greatest men that ever live pass away unknown. They put forth no claims for themselves, establish no schools or systems in their name. They never create any stir but just melt down in love.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
In every attempt there are many obstacles to cope with, but gradually the path becomes smooth.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
There are the altars, but here is the greatest of altars, the living, conscious human body, and to worship at this altar is far higher than the worship of any dead symbols.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
A man could be in a throne and have no attachment at all another one could be in rags and have many attachments.
