More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Let us give out of our own bounty, just as God gives to us.
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
First get rid of the delusion I am the body, then only will we want real knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda
We are bound to earth by desire and also to God, heaven, and the angels. A slave is a slave whether to man, to God, or to angels.
Swami Vivekananda
The principles of the Vedanta not only should be preached everywhere in India, but also outside. Our thought must enter into the make-up of the minds of every nation, not through writings, but through persons.
Swami Vivekananda
Let me die fighting. Two years of physical suffering have taken from me twenty years of life. But the soul changes not, does it? It is there, the same madcap - Atman - mad upon one idea, intent and intense.
Swami Vivekananda
He who conquers self conquers all.
Swami Vivekananda
If you dare declare that you are free, free you are this moment. If you say you are bound, bound you will remain.
Swami Vivekananda
Where will you go to seek Brahman? He is immanent in all beings. Here, here is the visible Brahman! Shame on those who, neglecting the visible Brahman, set their minds on other things! Here is the visible Brahman before you as tangible as a fruit in one's hand! Can't you see? Here - here - is Brahman!
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is the one and sole interest of the people of India.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the nearest approach to Brahman.
Swami Vivekananda
Only when a man sees this universe as God does the veil fall from his eyes then that man, purified and cleansed, finds his whole vision changed.
Swami Vivekananda
The history of the world is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves
Swami Vivekananda
A form comes out of a combination of force and matter.
Swami Vivekananda
We want Shraddhâ, we want faith in our own selves. Strength is life, weakness is death. 'We are the Âtman, deathless and free pure, pure by nature. Can we ever commit any sin? Impossible!' - such a faith is needed. Such a faith makes men of us, makes gods of us. It is by losing this idea of Shraddha that the country has gone to ruin.
Swami Vivekananda
Everybody is changing.
Swami Vivekananda
As thou thinkest, so art thou.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion, in India, means realisation and nothing short of that.
Swami Vivekananda
All great undertakings are achieved through mighty obstacles. Keep up the deepest mental poise. Take not even the slightest notice of what puerile creatures may be saying against you.
Swami Vivekananda
This life is a hard fact work your way through it boldly, though it may be adamantine no matter, the soul is stronger.
Swami Vivekananda
