As soon as I think that I am a little body, I want to preserve it, to protect it, to keep it nice, at the expense of other bodies then you and I become separate.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The body and mind are dependent.
Swami Vivekananda
There are the altars, but here is the greatest of altars, the living, conscious human body, and to worship at this altar is far higher than the worship of any dead symbols.
Swami Vivekananda
The man who becomes angry never does a great amount of work, and the man whom nothing can make angry accomplishes so much.
Swami Vivekananda
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
The seeker's silence is the loudest form of prayer.

Swami Vivekananda
Self-love is the first teacher of self-renunciation.
Swami Vivekananda
Christ said, I and my father are one, and you repeat it. Yet it has not helped mankind. For nineteen hundred years men have not understood that saying. They make Christ the saviour of men. He is God and we are worms!
Swami Vivekananda
Whatever is weak, avoid! It is death.
Swami Vivekananda
True religion comes not front the teaching of men or the reading of books it is the awakening of the spirit within us, consequent upon pure and heroic action.
Swami Vivekananda
Change of the unchangeable would be a contradiction.
Swami Vivekananda
The Imitation of Christ is a cherished treasure of the Christian world. This great book was written by a Roman Catholic monk. Written, perhaps, is not the proper word. It would be more appropriate to say that each letter of the book is marked deep with the heart's blood of the great soul who had renounced all for his love of Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
Get rid of the bondage of body we have become slaves to it and learnt to hug our chains and love our slavery so much so that we long to perpetuate it, and go on with body body for ever. Do not cling to the idea of body, do not look for a future existence in any way like this one do not love or want the body, even of those dear to us.
Swami Vivekananda
When once you consider an action, do not let anything dissuade you. Consult your heart, not others, and then follow its dictates.
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
Relationships are more important than life,but it is important for those relationships to have life in them
Swami Vivekananda
