More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Blows are what awaken us & help to break the dream. They show us the insufficiency of this world & make us long to escape, to have freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
Those giants of old, the ancient Rishis, who never walked but strode, of whom if you were to think but for a moment you would shrivel up into a moth, they sir, had time-and you have no time!
Swami Vivekananda
Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work- this is the only way.
Swami Vivekananda
Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.
Swami Vivekananda
Practice is absolutely necessary. You may sit down and listen to me by the hour every day, but if you do not practice, you will not get one step further. It all depends on practice.
Swami Vivekananda
The cause of today is the effect of the past and the cause for the future.
Swami Vivekananda
In nature alone are forms. That which is not of nature cannot have any forms, fine or gross. It must be formless.
Swami Vivekananda
How do you know what possibilities lie behind that degradation on the surface? You know but little of that which is within you. For behind you is the ocean of infinite power and blessedness.
Swami Vivekananda
Woman has suffered for eons, and that has given her infinite patience and infinite perseverance.
Swami Vivekananda
Jnana teaches that the world should be given up, but not on that account to be abandoned. To be in the world but not of it-is the true test of the sannyasin.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the Prana that is manifesting as motion.
Swami Vivekananda
He who has no faith in himself can never have faith in God.
Swami Vivekananda
I have come to deal with principles. I have only to preach that God comes again and again, and that He came in India as Krishna, Rama, and Buddha, and that He will come again. It can almost be demonstrated that after each 500 years the world sinks, and a tremendous spiritual wave comes, and on the top of the wave is a Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
You must have an iron will, if you would cross the ocean. You must be strong enough to pierce mountains.
Swami Vivekananda
See how the Ganga flows by and what a nice building! I like this place. This is the ideal kind of place for a Math. (in Belur, West Bengal).
Swami Vivekananda
That which is selfish is immoral, and that which is unselfish is moral.
Swami Vivekananda
However we may receive blows, and however knocked about we may be, the Soul is there and is never injured. We are that Infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
To give up the world is to forget the ego, to know it not at all - living in the body, but not of it.
Swami Vivekananda
Thoughts are living things - they travel far.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the subjective world that rules the objective. Change the subject, and the object is bound to change purify youreslf, and the world is bound to be purified.
Swami Vivekananda
