More quotes by 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
There is implanted in every man, naturally, a strong desire for progress.
Swami Vivekananda
Be grateful that the poor man is there, so that by making a gift to him you are able to help yourself
Swami Vivekananda
We have wept enough. No more weeping, but stand on feet and be men.
Swami Vivekananda
With the Holy Mother as the centre of inspiration, a Math is to be established on the eastern bank of the Ganga. . . . On the other side of the Ganga a big plot of land will be acquired, where unmarried girls or Brahmacharini widows will live devout married women will also be allowed to stay now and then. Men will have no concern with this Math.
Swami Vivekananda
Let him who has courage in his mind and love in his heart come with me. I want none else.
Swami Vivekananda
It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
Swami Vivekananda
Not believing in the glory of our own soul is what the Vedanta calls atheism.
Swami Vivekananda
To me an Indian is one who has got a Vedantic brain which probes deep and soars high an Islamic body that is vibrant and valiant a Buddhistic heart overflowing with compassion and kindness and Christian limbs of service and sacrifice.
Swami Vivekananda
To get any reason out of the mass of incongruity we call human life, we have to transcend our reason, but we must do it scientifically, slowly, by regular practice, and we must cast off all superstition.
Swami Vivekananda
You cannot take away one atom of matter or one foot-pound of force. You cannot add to the universe one atom of matter or one foot-pound of force. As such, evolution does not come out of zero then, where does it come from? From previous involution.
Swami Vivekananda
I have come to deal with principles. I have only to preach that God comes again and again, and that He came in India as Krishna, Rama, and Buddha, and that He will come again. It can almost be demonstrated that after each 500 years the world sinks, and a tremendous spiritual wave comes, and on the top of the wave is a Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
The atom cannot disobey the law. Whether it is the mental or the physical atom, it must obey the law. What is the use of [external restraint]?
Swami Vivekananda
This caste system had grown by the practice of the son always following the business of the father.
Swami Vivekananda
Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.
Swami Vivekananda
Present-day Hinduism and Buddhism were growths from the same branch. Buddhism degenerated, and Shankara lopped it off!
Swami Vivekananda
Always remember that renunciation is the root idea. Unless one is initiated into this idea, not even Brahma and the World - gods have the power to attain Mukti
Swami Vivekananda
The body and mind are dependent.
Swami Vivekananda
The same fire that cooks a meal for us may burn a child, and it is no fault of the fire if it does so the difference lies in the way in which it is used.
Swami Vivekananda
The whole life is a succession of dreams. My ambition is to be a conscious dreamer, that is all.
