More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
A wave in the ocean is a wave, only in so far as it is bound by name and form.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is not an imitation of Jesus or Mohammed. Even if an imitation is good, it is never genuine. Be not an imitation of Jesus, but be Jesus, You are quite as great as Jesus, Buddha, or anybody else. If we are not ... we must struggle and be. I would not be exactly like Jesus. It is unnecessary that I should be born a Jew.
Swami Vivekananda
May the Lord ordain that your son becomes a man, and never a coward!
Swami Vivekananda
From the highest god to the meanest grass, the same power is present in all - whether manifested or not. We shall have to call forth that power by going from door to door.
Swami Vivekananda
My son, there is no rest for me. That which Sri Ramakrishna called Kali took possession of my body and soul three or four days before his passing away. That makes me work and work and never lets me keep still or look to my personal comfort.
Swami Vivekananda
The Yogi must always practice.
Swami Vivekananda
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
Slavery is slavery. The chain of gold is quite as bad as the chain of iron. Is there a way out?
Swami Vivekananda
Whatever you think, that you will be. If you think yourselves weak, weak you will be if you think yourselves strong, strong you will be.
Swami Vivekananda
Try a little harder, and meditation comes. You do not feel the body or anything else. When you come out of it after the hour, you have had the most beautiful rest you ever had in your life. That is the only way you ever give rest to your system. Not even the deepest sleep will give you such a rest as that.
Swami Vivekananda
In one sense Brahman is known to every human being he knows, I am but man does not know himself as he is.
Swami Vivekananda
All progression is in the relative world.
Swami Vivekananda
The sculptor, the painter the musician the dancer, or any artist, if he can first obtain celebrate in Paris, acquires very easily the esteem and eulogy of other countries.
Swami Vivekananda
The power of concentration is the only key to the treasure-house of knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda
In every attempt there will be one set of men who will applaud, and another who will pick holes. Go on doing your own work, what need have you to reply to any party?
Swami Vivekananda
The attempt to remove evil from the world by killing a thousand evil - doers, only adds to the evil in the world.
Swami Vivekananda
What do you gain in heaven? You become gods, drink nectar, and get rheumatism. There is less misery there than on earth, but also less truth.
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
Let new India arise out of peasants' cottage, grasping the plough, out of huts, cobbler and sweeper.
Swami Vivekananda
In whatever name or form they are offered, all these flowers are laid at God's feet, for He is the one Lord of all, the one Soul of all souls.
