Knowledge of the Absolute depends upon no book, nor upon anything it is absolute in itself. No amount of study will give this knowledge is not theory, it is realization. Cleanse the dust from the mirror, purify your own mind, and in a flash you know that you are Brahman.
Swami Vivekananda
Work, my children, work with your whole heart and soul! That is the thing. Mind not the fruit of work. What if you go to hell working for others? That is worth more than to gain heaven by seeking your own salvation... Sri Ramakrishna came and gave his life for the world. I will also sacrifice my life.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Swami Vivekananda
All power is within you you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do anything and everything without even the guidance of any one.
Swami Vivekananda
This little separate self must die. Then we shall find that we are in the Real, and that Real is God, and He is our own true nature, and He is always in us and with us. Let us live in Him and stand in Him. It is the only joyful state of existence. Life on the plane of the Spirit is the only life, and let us all try to attain to this realization.
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of practice is worth a thousand pounds of theory.

Swami Vivekananda
