More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Happiness presents itself to man, wearing the crown of sorrow on its head. He who welcomes it must also welcome sorrow.
Swami Vivekananda
We have either to progress or to degenerate. Our ancestors did great things in the past, but we have to grow into a fuller life and march beyond even their great achievements.
Swami Vivekananda
The truths of Upanishadas are before you. Take them up, live up to them, and the salvation of Bharat will be at hand.
Swami Vivekananda
As thou thinkest, so art thou.
Swami Vivekananda
Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, and fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.
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
Say, I can do everything . Even if poison of a snake is powerless if you can firmly deny it.
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
God is pure, and the same to all.
Swami Vivekananda
Man as Atman is really free as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami Vivekananda
[The seers call him wise] whose every attempt is free, without any desire for gain, without any selfishness.
Swami Vivekananda
Give everything and look for no return.
Swami Vivekananda
All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is therefore the only law of life. He who loves lives, he who is selfish is dying. Therefore love for love's sake, because it is the only law of life, just as you breathe to live.
Swami Vivekananda
Though an atom is invisible, unthinkable, yet in it are the whole power and potency of the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Work and worship are necessary to take away the veil, to lift off the bondage and illusion.
Swami Vivekananda
Hold on to your own ideal. . . . Above all, never attempt to guide or rule others, or, as the Yankees say, boss others. Be the servant of all.
Swami Vivekananda
Change is the nature of all objective things.
Swami Vivekananda
Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the Truth.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the apex of the only world we can ever know.
Swami Vivekananda
My faith is in the younger generation, the modern generation. Out of them will come my workers. They will work out the whole problem like lions
