More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The idea of God grew side by side with the idea of materialism.
Swami Vivekananda
When we free ourselves from name and form, especially from a body - when we need no body, good or bad - then only do we escape from bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
The day, man will find that he never really dies that his Soul persists beyond death he will have no more fear of death.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the nearest approach to Brahman.
Swami Vivekananda
Our religion teaches that anger is a great sin, even if it is righteous.
Swami Vivekananda
Anything that is in space has form. Space itself has form. Either you are in space, or space is in you. The soul is beyond all space. Space is in the soul, not the soul in space.
Swami Vivekananda
Children of those ancient Aryans, through the grace of the Lord may you have the same pride, may that faith in your ancestors come into your blood, may it become a part and parcel of your lives, may it work towards the salvation of the world!
Swami Vivekananda
Meditation means the mind is turned back upon itself. The mind stops all the thought-waves and the world stops. Your consciousness expands. Every time you meditate you will keep your growth.
Swami Vivekananda
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
Learn good knowledge with all devotion from the lowest caste. Learn the way to freedom, even if it comes from a Pariah, by serving him. If a woman is a jewel, take her in marriage even if she comes from a low family of the lowest caste. Such is the law laid down by our great and peerless legislator, the divine Manu.
Swami Vivekananda
Change is always subjective. To talk of evil and misery is nonsense, because they do not exist outside. If I am immune from all anger, I never feel angry. If am immune from all hatred, I never feel hatred.
Swami Vivekananda
The bane of sects, especially in Bengal, is that if any one happens to have a different opinion, he immediately starts a new sect, he has no patience to wait.
Swami Vivekananda
The Yogi must always practice.
Swami Vivekananda
Why is it that we three hundred and thirty millions of people have been ruled for the last one thousand years by any and every handful of foreigners who chose to walk over our prostrate bodies? Because they had faith in themselves and we had not.
Swami Vivekananda
It is nature that is changing, not the soul of man. This never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
Never turn back to see the result of what you have done. Give all to the Lord and go on, and think not of it.
Swami Vivekananda
Desire, ignorance, and inequality—this is the trinity of bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
Even our smallest attempts are not in vain. We know that nothing is lost.
Swami Vivekananda
Hindus believe in God positively. Buddhism does not try to know whether He is or not.
Swami Vivekananda
The mistake is that we cling to the body when it is the spirit that is really immortal.
Swami Vivekananda
