More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
Truth will never come into our minds so long as there will remain the faintest shadow of Ahamkâra (egotism). All of you should try to root out this devil from your heart. Complete self-surrender is the only way to spiritual illumination.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Neither seek nor avoid, take what comes.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The God which cannot give me food in this world, cannot give me Heaven in the other world
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Infinite strength is religion and God.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
May the Lord ordain that your son becomes a man, and never a coward!
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The body is the external coating and the mind is the internal coating of the Atman who is the real perceiver, the real enjoyer, the being in the body who is working the body by means of the internal organ or the mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The Kingdom of Heaven is within us. God is within us. He is the Soul of our souls. See Him in your own soul. That is practical religion. That is freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
It is the greatest manifestation of power to be calm.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Accumulate power in silence and become a dynamo of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
Many of us do not believe in any form of idolatry but they have no right to object when others do it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Perfect sincerity, holiness, gigantic intellect, and all-conquering will. Let only a handful of men work with these, and the whole world will be revolutionized.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Let people say whatever they like, stick to your own convictions, and rest assured, the world will be at your feet. They say, Have faith in this fellow or that fellow, but I say, Have faith in yourself first, that's the way. Have faith in yourself-all power is in you-be conscious and bring it out. Say, I can do everything.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Out of this idea of separation between atom and atom comes all misery.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
It is impossible to think about the welfare of the world unless the condition of women is improved. It is impossible for a bird to fly on only one wing.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Change is always in regard to something which does not change, or which changes relatively less.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
A brave, frank, clean-hearted, courageous and aspiring youth is the only foundation on which the future nation can be built.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
There is salvation only for the brave.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This intelligence itself is modified into what we call egoism, and this intelligence is the cause of all the powers in the body. It covers the whole ground, sub-consciousness, consciousness, and super-consciousness.
Swami Vivekananda
