More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Those who work at a thing heart and soul not only achieve success in it but through their absorption in that they also realize the supreme truth-Brahman. Those who work at a thing with their whole heart receive help from God.
Swami Vivekananda
The cheerful mind perseveres and the strong mind hews its way through a thousand difficulties.
Swami Vivekananda
The householder must always please his wife with money, clothes, love and faith and never do anything to disturb her. That man who has succeeded in getting the love of a chaste wife has succeeded in his religion and has all the virtues.
Swami Vivekananda
I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything they really deserve.
Swami Vivekananda
Expansion is life. Love is expansion. Love is therefore the only law of life.
Swami Vivekananda
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Swami Vivekananda
In spirituality the Americans are very inferior to us. But their society is very superior to ours.
Swami Vivekananda
Because the Soul is not made of matter, since it is spiritual, it cannot obey the laws of matter, it cannot be judged by the laws of matter.
Swami Vivekananda
Delusion will vanish as the light becomes more and more effulgent, load after load of ignorance will vanish, and then will come a time when all else has disappeared and the sun alone shines.
Swami Vivekananda
It is fear that is the greatest cause of misery in the world.
Swami Vivekananda
All growth, progress, well - being, or degradation is but relative.
Swami Vivekananda
We have to cover everything with the Lord himself, not a false sort of optimism, not by blinding our eyes to the evil, but by really seeing God in everything.
Swami Vivekananda
The Hindus have cultivated the power of analysis and abstraction. No nation has yet produced a grammar like that of Panini.
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
Make no conditions and none will be imposed.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion and religion alone is the life of India, and when that goes India will die, in spite of politics, in spite of social reforms, in spite of Kubera's wealth poured upon the head of every one of her children.
Swami Vivekananda
To weep is a sign of weakness, of bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
The seeker's silence is the loudest form of prayer.
Swami Vivekananda
Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book? How dare men call God infinite, and yet try to compress Him within the covers of a little book!
Swami Vivekananda
