More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Blows are what awaken us & help to break the dream. They show us the insufficiency of this world & make us long to escape, to have freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
Present-day Hinduism and Buddhism were growths from the same branch. Buddhism degenerated, and Shankara lopped it off!
Swami Vivekananda
Be not in despair, the way is very difficult, like walking on the edge of a razor yet despair not, arise, awake, and find the ideal, the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
We should cultivate the optimistic temperament, and endeavour to see the good that dwells in everything. If we sit down and lament over the imperfection of our bodies and our minds, we profit nothing it is the heroic endeavour to subdue adverse circumstances that carries our spirit upward.
Swami Vivekananda
The Heart and core of everything here is good, that whatever may be the surface waves, deep down and underlying everything, there is an infinite basis of Goodness and Love.
Swami Vivekananda
Man in his true nature is substance, soul, spirit.
Swami Vivekananda
Purity, patience and perseverance are the three essentials to success and above all love.
Swami Vivekananda
The Indian mind is first religious, then anything else. So this is to be strengthened.
Swami Vivekananda
If you think that you are bound, you remain bound you make your own bondage. If you know that you are free, you are free this moment. This is knowledge, knowledge of freedom. Freedom is the goal of all nature.
Swami Vivekananda
The world cares little for principles. They care for persons.
Swami Vivekananda
This external worship of images has, however, been described in all our Shastras as the lowest of all the low forms of worship. But that does not mean that it is a wrong thing to do.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything must be sacrificed, if necessary, for that one sentiment: universality.
Swami Vivekananda
The organs are the horses, the mind is the rein, the intellect is the charioteer, the soul is the rider, and the body is the chariot.
Swami Vivekananda
The power of concentration is the only key to the treasure-house of knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda
We know there is no progress in a straight line.
Swami Vivekananda
Consciously or unconsciously, health can be transmitted. A very strong man, living with a weak man, will make him a little stronger, whether he knows it or not.
Swami Vivekananda
Jnana, bhakti, yoga and karma - these are the four paths which lead to spiritual freedom. One must follow the path for which one is best suited. But in this age, special stress should be laid on karma yoga.
Swami Vivekananda
Relationships are more important than life,but it is important for those relationships to have life in them
Swami Vivekananda
If a man, day and night, thinks he is miserable, low and nothing, nothing he becomes. If you say yea, yea, I am, I am, so shall you be.
Swami Vivekananda
No doubt it is an evil to be bound by laws, but it is necessary at the immature stage to be guided by rules in other words, as the Master used to say that the sapling must be hedged round, and so on.
Swami Vivekananda
