More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
To me an Indian is one who has got a Vedantic brain which probes deep and soars high an Islamic body that is vibrant and valiant a Buddhistic heart overflowing with compassion and kindness and Christian limbs of service and sacrifice.
Swami Vivekananda
This Maya is everywhere. It is terrible. Yet we have to work through it. The man who says that he will work when the world has become all good and then he will enjoy bliss is as likely to succeed as the man who sits beside the Ganga and says, I will ford the river when all the water has run into the ocean.
Swami Vivekananda
So long as we perceive this world in motion, we have to conceive will behind it.
Swami Vivekananda
Paris is the fountain-head of European civilisation, as Gomukhi is of the Ganga.
Swami Vivekananda
We first observe facts, then generalise, and then draw conclusions or principles.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything is the living God, the living Christ see it as such.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is the one and sole interest of the people of India.
Swami Vivekananda
One who leans on others cannot serve the God of Truth.
Swami Vivekananda
Do you think there is any other means of achieving progress except through Rajas?
Swami Vivekananda
I have come to deal with principles. I have only to preach that God comes again and again, and that He came in India as Krishna, Rama, and Buddha, and that He will come again. It can almost be demonstrated that after each 500 years the world sinks, and a tremendous spiritual wave comes, and on the top of the wave is a Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
The sum total or Ishwara may be said to be All-good, Almighty, and Omniscient. These are obvious qualities, and need no argument to prove, from the very fact of totality.
Swami Vivekananda
Books are infinite in number and time is short. The secret of knowledge is to take what is essential. Take that and try to live up to it.
Swami Vivekananda
May I be born again and again, and suffer thousands of miseries so that I may worship the only God that exists, the only God I believe in, the sum total of all souls-and, above all, my God the wicked, my God the miserable, my God the poor of all races, of all species, is the special object of my worship.
Swami Vivekananda
Men may have given millions of dollars and fed rats and cats, as some do in India. They say that men can take care of themselves, but the poor animals cannot. . .
Swami Vivekananda
Even the lowest of the Hindus, the Pariah, has less of the brute in him than a Briton in a similar social status.
Swami Vivekananda
Self-love is the first teacher of self-renunciation.
Swami Vivekananda
Morality is the struggle of the bound will to get free and is the proof that we have come from perfection. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
Excepting the infinite spirit, everything else is changing. There is the whirl of change.
Swami Vivekananda
The moment you fear, you are nobody.
Swami Vivekananda
All motion in this universe is in the form of waves, successively rising and falling.
Swami Vivekananda
