More quotes by 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
Work done for the Self gives no bondage. Neither desire pleasure nor fear pain from work. It is the mind and body that work, not I. Tell yourself this unceasingly and realise it. Try not to know that you work.
Swami Vivekananda
Every change is being forced upon us.
Swami Vivekananda
Each soul is potentially divine.
Swami Vivekananda
No matter what that makes elastic - sharply, intellectually and sincerely, keep at bay it as noxious waste.
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
We are the sons of Light and children of God. Glory unto the Lord, we will succeed.
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith in yourselves, great convictions are the mother of great deeds.
Swami Vivekananda
If you are angry, and then happy, the next moment the anger passes away. Out of that anger you manufactured the next state. These states are always interchangeable. Eternal happiness and misery are a child's dream.
Swami Vivekananda
YOU know, I may have to be born again, you see, I have fallen in love with mankind.
Swami Vivekananda
Blame neither man, nor God, nor anyone in the world. When you find yourselves suffering, blame yourselves, and try to do better.
Swami Vivekananda
Know for certain that there is no power in the universe to injure us unless we first injure ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Art must be in touch with nature - and wherever that touch is gone, Art degenerates - yet it must be above nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Hindu Dharma is the quintessence of our national life, hold fast to it if you want your country to survive, or else you would be wiped out in three generations.
Swami Vivekananda
In one sense Brahman is known to every human being he knows, I am but man does not know himself as he is.
Swami Vivekananda
You must have an iron will, if you would cross the ocean. You must be strong enough to pierce mountains.
Swami Vivekananda
Though an atom is invisible, unthinkable, yet in it are the whole power and potency of the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Ahimsa (non-killing), truthfulness, purity, mercy, and godliness are always to be kept.
Swami Vivekananda
Think day and night, I am of the essence of that Supreme Existence, Knowledge, Bliss-what fear and anxiety have I? This body, mind, and intellect are all transient, and That which is beyond these is myself.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is guided by the stomach. He walks and the stomach goes first and the head afterwards. Have you not seen that? It will take ages for the head to go first.
Swami Vivekananda
