More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Ask nothing want nothing in return. Give what you have to give it will come back to you, but do not think of that now.
Swami Vivekananda
The benefits of knowledge can only be realized in practice.
Swami Vivekananda
Every one wants to command, and no one wants to obey and this is owing to the absence of that wonderful brahmacharya system of yore. First, learn to obey. The command will come by itself. Always first learn to be a servant, and then you will be fit to be a master.
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Each one of you has a glorious future if you dare believe me. Have a tremendous faith in yourselves, like the faith I had when I was I was young... Have that faith, each one of you, in yourself - that eternal power is lodged in every soul - and you will revive the whole of India.

Swami Vivekananda
Truth will never come into our minds so long as there will remain the faintest shadow of Ahamkâra (egotism). All of you should try to root out this devil from your heart. Complete self-surrender is the only way to spiritual illumination.
Swami Vivekananda
So long as the millions live in hunger and ignorance, I hold every man a traitor who, having been educated at their expense, pays not the least heed to them.
Swami Vivekananda
All law has its essence in causation.
Swami Vivekananda
