More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Behind my work was ambition, behind my love was personality, behind my purity was fear, behind my guidance the thirst for power. Now they are vanishing and I drift. I come, Mother, I come, in Thy warm bosom, floating wheresoever Thou takest me, in the voiceless, in the strange, in the wonderland, I come - a spectator, no more an actor.
Swami Vivekananda
The finer is always the cause, the grosser the effect. So the external world is the effect, the internal the cause.
Swami Vivekananda
Cut the bondage of all worldly affections go beyond laziness and all care as to what becomes of you.
Swami Vivekananda
Man the infinite dreamer, dreaming finite dreams!
Swami Vivekananda
Out of Mahat comes universal egoism.
Swami Vivekananda
Have fire and spread all over. Work, work. Be the servant while leading, be unselfish, and never listen to one friend in private accusing another. Have infinite patience, and success is yours.
Swami Vivekananda
If there be no eternal life, still the enjoyment of spiritual thoughts as ideals is keener and makes a man happier, whilst the foolery of materialism leads to competition and undue ambition and ultimate death, individual and national.
Swami Vivekananda
Freedom can never be reached by the weak. Throw away all weakness. Tell your body that it is strong, tell your mind that it is strong, and have unbounded faith and hope in yourself.
Swami Vivekananda
BY the study of different RELIGIONS we find that in essence they are one.
Swami Vivekananda
Because the Soul is not made of matter, since it is spiritual, it cannot obey the laws of matter, it cannot be judged by the laws of matter.
Swami Vivekananda
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
Swami Vivekananda
We want to lead mankind to the place where there is neither the Vedas, nor the Bible, nor the Koran yet this has to be done by harmonizing the Vedas, the Bible, and the Koran.
Swami Vivekananda
Karma is the eternal assertion of human freedom. . . . Our thoughts, our words, and deeds are the threads of the net which we throw around ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
My boat is nearing the calm harbour from which it is never more to be driven out. Glory, glory unto Mother! (Referring to the Divine Mother of the Universe.) I have no wish, no ambition now. Blessed be Mother! I am the servant of Ramakrishna. I am merely a machine. I know nothing else. Nor do I want to know.
Swami Vivekananda
Never forget that a man is made great and perfect as much by his faults as by his virtues. So we must not seek to rob a nation of its character, even if it could be proved that the character was all faults.
Swami Vivekananda
Stand upon the Atman, then only can we truly love the world. Take a very, very high stand knowing our universal nature, we must look with perfect calmness upon all the panorama of the world.
Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
Each soul is a star and all stars are set in the infinite azure, the eternal sky-the Lord.
Swami Vivekananda
It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
Swami Vivekananda
As the cause is, so the effect will be.
Swami Vivekananda
