More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Be not in despair, the way is very difficult, like walking on the edge of a razor yet despair not, arise, awake, and find the ideal, the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
Philosophy insists that there is a joy which is absolute, which never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
I want to start two institutions, one in Madras and one in Calcutta, to carry out my plan and that plan briefly is to bring the Vedantic ideals into the everyday practical life of the saint or the sinner, of the sage or the ignoramus, of the Brahmin or the Pariah.
Swami Vivekananda
Change of the unchangeable would be a contradiction.
Swami Vivekananda
I fervently wish no misery ever came near anyone yet it is that alone that gives us an insight into the depths of our lives, does it not? In our moments of anguish, gates barred forever seem to open and let in many a flood of light.

Swami Vivekananda
One way for attaining Bhakti is by repeating the name of God a number of times. Mantras have effect: the mere repetition of words.... To obtain Bhakti, seek the company of holy men who have Bhakti, and read books like the Gita and the Imitation of Christ always think of the attributes of God.
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith. We will do
Swami Vivekananda

Love for yourselves means [in the end] love for everything.
Swami Vivekananda
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
The wave is the same thing as the water, the effect is the cause in another form
Swami Vivekananda
Let us not depend upon the world for pleasure.
Swami Vivekananda
To cowards what advice shall I offer? - nothing whatsoever have I to say.
Swami Vivekananda
Do not hate anybody, because that hatred which comes out from you must, in the long run, come back to you. If you love, that love will come back to you, completing the circle.
Swami Vivekananda
Live for an ideal and leave no place in the mind for anything else.
Swami Vivekananda
