Holiness sincerity, and faith.

Swami Vivekananda
Image
Christ said, Resist not evil, and we do not understand it until we discover that it is not only moral but actually the best policy, for anger is loss of energy to the man who displays it. You should not allow your minds to come into those brain-combinations of anger and hatred.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Let each one of us pray day and night for the downtrodden millions who are held fast by poverty, priestcraft, and tyranny. Pray day and night for them. I care more to preach religion to them than to the high and the rich.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Even the lowest of the low have the Atman (Soul) inside, which never dies and never is born, immortal, without beginning or end, the all pure, omnipotent and omnipresent Atman!
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Know full well that patience is the best means of succeeds.
Swami Vivekananda

He who conquers self conquers all.
Swami Vivekananda
