More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Bodies come and go, but the soul does not change.
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of the practice of righteousness and of spiritual Self-realisation outweighs tons and tons of frothy talk and nonsensical sentiments.
Swami Vivekananda
Women will work out their destinies — much better, too, than men can ever do for them. All the mischief to women has come because men undertook to shape the destiny of women.
Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
If you want to have life, you have to die every moment for it. Life and death are only different expressions of the same thing looked at from different standpoints they are the falling and the rising of the same wave, and the two form one whole.
Swami Vivekananda
The law of Karma is the law of causation.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything progresses in waves. The march of civilization, the progression of worlds, is in waves. All human activities likewise progress in waves - art, literature, science, religion.
Swami Vivekananda
In India, religious life forms the centre, the keynote of the whole music of national life.
Swami Vivekananda
Watch people do their most common actions these are indeed the things that will tell you the real character of a great person.
Swami Vivekananda
Superstition is great enemy of man but bigotry is worse.
Swami Vivekananda
We know there is no progress in a straight line.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is the peculiarity of the growth of the Indian mind.
Swami Vivekananda
The finer the instrument, the greater the power. The mind is much finer and more powerful than the body.
Swami Vivekananda
The vapour becomes snow, then water, then Ganga but when it is vapour, there is no Ganga, and when it is water, we think of no vapour in it. The idea of creation or change is inseparably connected with will. So long as we perceive this world in motion, we have to conceive will behind it.
Swami Vivekananda
Comfort is no test of truth on the contrary, truth is often far from being comfortable.
Swami Vivekananda
The guide, the guru, the leader, the teacher, has passed away the boy, the student, the servant, is left behind.
Swami Vivekananda
We want to know in order to make ourselves free. That is our life: one universal cry for freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
Let the churches preach doctrines, theories, philosophies to their hearts' content, but when it comes to worship, the real practical part of religion, it should be as Jesus says, When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret.
Swami Vivekananda
The real work is in the practice.
Swami Vivekananda
Bold words and bolder deeds are what we want. Awake, awake, great ones! The world is burning with misery. Can you sleep?
Swami Vivekananda
