More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Know that every time you feel weak, you not only hurt yourself but also the cause. Infinite faith and strength are the only conditions of success.
Swami Vivekananda
No great work can be achieved by humbug. It is through love, a passion for truth, and tremendous energy, that all undertakings are accomplished.
Swami Vivekananda
Renunciation is always the ideal of every race only other races do not know what they are made to do by nature unconsciously.
Swami Vivekananda
Om is the pointed piece and Dhyâna (meditation) is the friction.
Swami Vivekananda
It is nature that is changing, not the soul of man. This never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
No matter what that makes elastic - sharply, intellectually and sincerely, keep at bay it as noxious waste.
Swami Vivekananda
A man must not only have faith but intellectual faith too. To make a man take up everything and believe it, would be to make him a lunatic.
Swami Vivekananda
Be a hero. Always say, 'I have no fear.' Tell this to everyone - 'Have no fear.'
Swami Vivekananda
So long as you have faith in your Guru, nothing will be able to obstruct your way.
Swami Vivekananda
If you die, you get to heaven and if you win, you enjoy the earth (Gita). Even if you die in this attempt, well and good, many will take up the work, following your example. And if you succeed, you will live a life of great opulence.
Swami Vivekananda
Only by practice and non-attachment can we conquer mind.
Swami Vivekananda
First get rid of the delusion I am the body, then only will we want real knowledge.
Swami Vivekananda
This is the one great idea to understand that our power is already ours, our salvation is already within us.
Swami Vivekananda
Buddha taught kindness towards lower beings and since then there has not been a sect in India that has not taught charity to all beings, even to animals. This kindness, this mercy, this charity - greater than any doctrine - are what Buddhism left to us.
Swami Vivekananda
Mind you, there is no value in learning. You are all mistaken in learning. The only value of knowledge is in the strengthening, the disciplining, of the mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Whose meditation is real and effective? Who can really surrender to the will of God? Only the person whose mind has been purified by selfless work.
Swami Vivekananda
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
Swami Vivekananda
Anything that is in space has form. Space itself has form. Either you are in space, or space is in you. The soul is beyond all space. Space is in the soul, not the soul in space.
Swami Vivekananda
Whatever you are doing, put your whole mind on it. If you are shooting, your mind should be only on the target. Then you will never miss. If you are learning your lessons, think only of the lesson. In India boys and girls are taught to do this.
Swami Vivekananda
These births and deaths are changes in nature which we are mistaking for changes in us.
Swami Vivekananda
