More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Love for yourselves means [in the end] love for everything.
Swami Vivekananda
The book one must read to learn natural sciences is the book of nature. The book from which to learn religion is your own mind and heart.
Swami Vivekananda
As long as we believe ourselves to be even the least different from God, fear remains with us but when we know ourselves to be the One, fear goes of what can we be afraid.?
Swami Vivekananda
Materialism prevails in Europe today. You may pray for the salvation of the modern sceptics, but they do not yield, they want reason.
Swami Vivekananda
Man's free agency is not of the mind, for that is bound. There is no freedom there.
Swami Vivekananda
We must not forget that what I mean by the conquest of the world by spiritual thought is the sending out of the life-giving principles, not the hundreds of superstitions that we have been hugging to our breasts for centuries.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything which has name and form must die. If there are heavens with forms, these heavens must vanish in course of time they may last millions of years, but there must come a time when they will have to go.
Swami Vivekananda
It is contrary to our principles to multiply organizations, since, in all conscience, there are enough of them. And when organizations are created they need individuals to look after them.
Swami Vivekananda
This is a great fact: strength is life weakness is death. Strength is felicity, life eternal, immortal weakness is constant strain and misery, weakness is death.
Swami Vivekananda
I want to start two institutions, one in Madras and one in Calcutta, to carry out my plan and that plan briefly is to bring the Vedantic ideals into the everyday practical life of the saint or the sinner, of the sage or the ignoramus, of the Brahmin or the Pariah.
Swami Vivekananda
Bodies come and go, but the soul does not change.
Swami Vivekananda
Perfection is always infinite. We are the Infinite already. You and I, and all beings, are trying to manifest that infinity.
Swami Vivekananda
I am no metaphysician, no philosopher, nay, no saint. But I am poor and I love the poor. I see what they call the poor of this country and how many there are who feel for them!
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
Have faith. We will do
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
The only test of goods things is that they make us strong.
Swami Vivekananda
We want today that bright sun of intellectuality joined with the heart of Buddha, the wonderful infinite heart of love and mercy. This union will give us the highest philosophy.
Swami Vivekananda
Do not believe a thing because you have read about it in a book. Do not believe a thing because another man has said it was true. Do not believe in words because they are hallowed by tradition. Find out the truth for yourself. Reason it out. That is realization.
Swami Vivekananda
Ishvara is the highest manifestation of the Absolute Reality, or in other words, the highest possible reading of the Absolute by the human mind. Creation is eternal, and so also is Ishvara.
Swami Vivekananda
