More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
To succeed, you must have tremendous perserverance... tremendous will. I will drink the ocean, says the perservering soul at my will mountains will crumble. Have that sort of energy, that sort of will work hard, and you will reach the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
You know it already that each one of us is the effect of the infinite past the child is ushered into the world not as something flashing from the hands of nature, as poets delight so much to depict, but he has the burden of an infinite past for good or evil he comes to work out his own past deeds
Swami Vivekananda
Renunciation, and renunciation alone, is the real secret, the Mulamantra, of all Realisation.
Swami Vivekananda
The greatest sin is to think that you are weak. No one is greater: realize that you are Brahman. Nothing has power except what you give it.
Swami Vivekananda
The God which cannot give me food in this world, cannot give me Heaven in the other world
Swami Vivekananda
If the mind is pleased with praise, it will be displeased with blame.
Swami Vivekananda
We do not seek to thrust the principles of our religion upon anyone. The fundamental principles of our religion forbid that.
Swami Vivekananda
This world is not for cowards.
Swami Vivekananda
One atom in this universe cannot move without dragging the whole world along with it. There cannot be any progress without the whole world following in the wake, and it is becoming every day dearer that the solution of any problem can never be attained on racial, or national, or narrow grounds.
Swami Vivekananda
That which is selfish is immoral, and that which is unselfish is moral.
Swami Vivekananda
A changeable God would be no God.
Swami Vivekananda
God is cruel and not cruel. He is all being and not being at the same time. Hence He is all contradictions. Nature also is nothing but a mass of contradictions.
Swami Vivekananda
No doubt it is an evil to be bound by laws, but it is necessary at the immature stage to be guided by rules in other words, as the Master used to say that the sapling must be hedged round, and so on.
Swami Vivekananda
We must be bright and cheerful. Long faces do not make religion. Religion should be the most joyful thing in the world, because it is the best.
Swami Vivekananda
All real progress must be slow.
Swami Vivekananda
We must travel we must go to foreign parts. We must see how the engine of society works in other countries, and keep free and open communication with what is going on in the minds of other nations, if we really want to be a nation again.
Swami Vivekananda
Good and evil thoughts are each a potent power, and they fill the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
First, believe in the world - that there is meaning behind everything.
Swami Vivekananda
Each nation has a theme: everything else is secondary. India's theme is religion.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is the life of India, religion is the language of this country, the symbol of all its movements.
Swami Vivekananda
