More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Religion, in India, means realisation and nothing short of that.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the want that creates the body.
Swami Vivekananda
How do you know what possibilities lie behind that degradation on the surface? You know but little of that which is within you. For behind you is the ocean of infinite power and blessedness.
Swami Vivekananda
When an idea exclusively occupies the mind, it is transformed into an actual physical or mental state.
Swami Vivekananda
Motion is always a relative thing. I move in relation to something else. Any particle in this universe can change in relation to any other particle but take the whole universe as one, and in relation to what can it move? There is nothing besides it. So this infinite Unit is unchangeable, immovable, absolute, and this is the Real Man.
Swami Vivekananda
You have no more anger when you are all love, bliss, infinite existence. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
The infinite library of the Universe is in your mind.
Swami Vivekananda
A Sannyasin cannot belong to any religion, for his is a life of independent thought, which draws from all religions his is a life of realisation, not merely of theory or belief, much less of dogma.
Swami Vivekananda
Every individual has in himself perfection. It lies within the dark recesses of his physical being.
Swami Vivekananda
The more opposition there is, the better. Does a river acquire velocity unless there is resistance? The newer and better a thing is, the more opposition I will meet with at the outset. It is opposition which foretells success. Where there is no opposition there is no success either.
Swami Vivekananda
The history of the world is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves
Swami Vivekananda
Purity, patience and perseverance are the three essentials to success and above all love.
Swami Vivekananda
YOU know, I may have to be born again, you see, I have fallen in love with mankind.
Swami Vivekananda
From the high spiritual flights of the Vedanta philosophy, of which the latest discoveries of science seem like echoes, to the low ideas of idolatry with its multifarious mythology, the agnosticism of the Buddhists and the atheism of the Jains, each and all have a place in the Hinduism religion.
Swami Vivekananda
To his enemies the householder must be a hero. Them he must resist. That is the duty of the householder. He must not sit down in a corner and weep, and talk nonsense about non-resistance. If he does not show himself a hero to his enemies he has not done his duty.
Swami Vivekananda
This is the secret of spiritual life: to think that I am the Atman and not the body, and that the whole of this universe with all its relations, with all its good and all its evil, is but as a series of paintings...scenes on a canvas...of which I am the witness.
Swami Vivekananda
The Absolute can never be thought of.
Swami Vivekananda
Let new India arise out of peasants' cottage, grasping the plough, out of huts, cobbler and sweeper.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no end to the power a man can obtain.
Swami Vivekananda
Meditation is the means of unification of the subject and object. Meditate.
Swami Vivekananda
