More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
Evil company is always to be shunned because it leads to lust and anger, illusion, forgetfulness of the goal, destruction of the will (lack of perseverance), and destruction of everything. (Narada Bhakti Sutra)
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
A few heart-whole, sincere, and energetic men and women can do more in a year than a mob in a century.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Through the senses, anger comes, and sorrow comes.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Watch people do their most common actions these are indeed the things that will tell you the real character of a great person.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The Absolute God of the universe, the creator, preserver, and destroyer of the universe, is impersonal principle.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Only those who want nothing are masters of Nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The sign of vigour, the sign of life, the sign of hope, the sign of health, the sign of everything that is good, is strength. As long as the body lives, there must be strength in the body, strength in the mind, [and strength] in the hand.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Die in obeying commands like a soldier, and go to Nirvana, but no cowardice.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
The difference between architecture and building is that the former expresses an idea, while the latter is merely a structure built on economical principles. The value of matter depends solely on its capacities of expressing ideas.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
To get any reason out of the mass of incongruity we call human life, we have to transcend our reason, but we must do it scientifically, slowly, by regular practice, and we must cast off all superstition.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All growth, progress, well - being, or degradation is but relative.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Happiness presents itself to man, wearing the crown of sorrow on its head. He who welcomes it must also welcome sorrow.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
An intellectual, heartless man never becomes an inspired man. It is always the heart that speaks in the man of love it discovers a greater instrument than intellect can give you, the instrument of inspiration.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
If the mind is pleased with praise, it will be displeased with blame.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This world is nothing. It is at best only a hideous caricature, a shadow of the Real. We must go to the Real. Renunciation will take us to It. Renunciation is the very basis of our true life every moment of goodness and real life that we enjoy is when we do not think of ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The ideal of womanhood in India is motherhood - that marvellous, unselfish, all - suffering, ever - forgiving mother.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
It is a good discipline to be forced to work for work's sake, even to the length of not being allowed to enjoy the fruits of one's labour.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
We can have no conception of God higher than man, so our God is man, and man is God.
Swami Vivekananda
