Freedom can never be true of name and form it is the clay out of which we (the pots) are made then it is limited and not free, so that freedom can never be true of the related. One pot can never say I am free as a pot only as it loses all ideas of form does it become free.

Books are infinite in number and time is short. The secret of knowledge is to take what is essential. Take that and try to live up to it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The powers of the mind should be concentrated and the mind turned back upon itself as the darkest places reveal their secrets before the penetrating rays of the sun, so will the concentrated mind penetrate its own innermost secrets.
Swami Vivekananda

Come out into the Universe of Light. Everything in the Universe is Yours, stretch out your arms and Embrace it with Love

Purusha is the great attraction of the universe though untouched by and unconnected with the universe, yet it attracts the whole universe.

Have faith. We will do
Swami Vivekananda
Image
In every attempt there will be one set of men who will applaud, and another who will pick holes. Go on doing your own work, what need have you to reply to any party?
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The natural ambition of woman is through marriage to climb up, leaning upon a man but those days are gone. You shall be great without the help of any man, just as you are.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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.

Be grateful that the poor man is there, so that by making a gift to him you are able to help yourself

Differentiation is in name and form only.
Swami Vivekananda

Give me few men and women who are pure and selfless and I shall shake the world.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Every time you think of doing some charity, you think there is some beggar to take your charity. If you say, O Lord, let the world be full of charitable people! - you mean, let the world be full of beggars also. Let the world be full of good works - let the world be full of misery. This is out-and-out slavishness!

First, believe in the world - that there is meaning behind everything.
