More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Philosophy insists that there is a joy which is absolute, which never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
I direct my attention to the individual, to make him strong, to teach him that he himself is divine, and I call upon men to make themselves conscious of this divinity within. That is really the ideal --conscious or unconscious --of every religion.
Swami Vivekananda
Suppose cats became philosophers, they would see a cat universe and have a cat solution of the problem of the universe, and a cat ruling it. So we see from this that our explanation of the universe is not the whole of the solution.
Swami Vivekananda
A nation is not to be judged by its weaklings called the wicked, as they are only the weeds which lag behind, but by the good, the noble, and the pure, who indicate the national life current flowing clear and vigorous.
Swami Vivekananda
We must be bright and cheerful. Long faces do not make religion. Religion should be the most joyful thing in the world, because it is the best.
Swami Vivekananda
He who has no faith in himself can never have faith in God.
Swami Vivekananda
...Really, there is no greater sin than cowardice cowards are never saved - that is sure. I can stand everything else but not that.
Swami Vivekananda
It is always for greater joy that you give up the lesser. This is practical religion-the attainment of freedom, renunciation. Renounce the lower so that you may get the higher. Renounce! Renounce! Sacrifice! Give up! Not for zero. Not for nothing. But to get the higher.
Swami Vivekananda
How can there be any progress of the country without the spread of education, the dawning of knowledge?
Swami Vivekananda
Woman has suffered for eons, and that has given her infinite patience and infinite perseverance.
Swami Vivekananda
Never producing pain by thought, word, and deed, in any living being, is what is called Ahimsâ, non-injury.
Swami Vivekananda
We must plunge heart and soul and body into the work. And until we are ready to sacrifice everything else to one Idea and to one alone, we never, never will see the Light.
Swami Vivekananda
A certain motion becomes understood when it is referred to a force certain sensations, to matter certain changes outside, to law certain changes in thought, to mind certain order singly, to causation - and joined to time, to law.
Swami Vivekananda
Each soul is a star and all stars are set in the infinite azure, the eternal sky-the Lord.
Swami Vivekananda
There is only one Soul in the Universe. There is no 'you' or 'me' all variety is merged into the absolute unity, the one infinite existence - God.
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith in yourself. You people were once the Vedic Rishis. Only, you have come in different forms, that's all. I see it clear as daylight that you all have infinite power in you. Rouse that up arise, arise - apply yourselves heart and soul, gird up your loins.
Swami Vivekananda
And what causes fear? Ignorance of our own nature.
Swami Vivekananda
The earth is enjoyed by heroes”—this is the unfailing truth. Be a hero. Always say, “I have no fear.
Swami Vivekananda
Never talk about the faults of others, no matter how bad they may be. Nothing is ever gained by that. You never help one by talking about his fault you do him an injury, and injure yourself as well.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the want that creates the body.
Swami Vivekananda
