More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
As the different streams, having their sources in different places, all mingle their water in the sea O Lord, so the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
If you really want the good of others, the whole universe may stand against you and cannot hurt you. It must crumble before your power of the Lord Himself in you if you are sincere and really unselfish.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Ask nothing want nothing in return. Give what you have to give it will come back to you, but do not think of that now.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Without birth or death, eternal, ever-existing, free, unchangeable and beyond all conditions is this Soul of man - the real Self of Man - the Atman.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All motion, either in the body or anywhere else, is the work of this Prana.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
None deserves liberty who is not ready to give liberty
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Every atom is working and resisting every thought in the mind. Everything we see and know is but the resultant of these two forces.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Just as the body has its progress and decadence, so also has the mind, and, therefore, the mind is not the soul, because the soul can neither decay nor degenerate.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Good and evil thoughts are each a potent power, and they fill the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
We want Shraddhâ, we want faith in our own selves. Strength is life, weakness is death. 'We are the Âtman, deathless and free pure, pure by nature. Can we ever commit any sin? Impossible!' - such a faith is needed. Such a faith makes men of us, makes gods of us. It is by losing this idea of Shraddha that the country has gone to ruin.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Religion is the peculiarity of the growth of the Indian mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This is the secret of spiritual life: to think that I am the Atman and not the body, and that the whole of this universe with all its relations, with all its good and all its evil, is but as a series of paintings...scenes on a canvas...of which I am the witness.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The greatest sin is to think that you are weak. No one is greater: realize that you are Brahman. Nothing has power except what you give it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Man has infinite power within himself, and he can realise it - he can realise himself as the one infinite Self. It can be done but you do not believe it. You pray to God and keep your powder dry all the time.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
The mind has to be gradually and systematically brought under control.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
As body, mind, or soul, you are a dream you really are Being, Consciousness, Bliss (satchidananda). You are the God of this universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Everybody is changing.
