Let new India arise out of peasants' cottage, grasping the plough, out of huts, cobbler and sweeper.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
What we want now is an immense awakening of Râjasika energy, for the whole country is wrapped in the shroud of Tamas. The people of this land must be fed and clothed-must be awakened -must be made more fully active. Otherwise they will become inert, as inert as trees and stones. So, I say, eat large quantities of fish and meat, my boy!
Swami Vivekananda
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
The whole life is a succession of dreams. My ambition is to be a conscious dreamer, that is all.
Swami Vivekananda
Hold on to your own ideal. . . . Above all, never attempt to guide or rule others, or, as the Yankees say, boss others. Be the servant of all.
Swami Vivekananda
Give me few men and women who are pure and selfless and I shall shake the world.
Swami Vivekananda
One possessing Vairagya does not understand by Atman the individual ego but the All-pervading Lord, residing as the Self and Internal Ruler in all. He is perceivable by all as the sum total.
Swami Vivekananda
Out of this idea of separation between atom and atom comes all misery.
Swami Vivekananda
Wherever in any society there are too many laws, it is a sure sign that that society will soon die. If you study the characteristics of India, you will find that no nation possesses so many laws as the Hindus, and national death is the result.
Swami Vivekananda
The Impersonal God seen through the mists of sense is personal.
Swami Vivekananda
Paris is the fountain-head of European civilisation, as Gomukhi is of the Ganga.
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
I stand for truth. Truth will never ally itself with falsehood. Even if all the world should be against me, Truth must prevail in the end.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the Prana that is manifesting as motion.
Swami Vivekananda
He who has no faith in himself can never have faith in God.
Swami Vivekananda
Worship of society and popular opinion is idolatry.
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
Who shall make me perfect? I am perfect already.
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
There may be a million microbes of misery floating about us. Never mind! They dare not approach us, they have no power to get a hold on us, until the mind is weakened.
Swami Vivekananda
Let him who has courage in his mind and love in his heart come with me. I want none else.
Swami Vivekananda
