More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Man is the product of two forces, action and reaction, which make him think.
Swami Vivekananda
Be not Afraid of anything. You will do Marvelous work. it is Fearlessness that brings Heaven even in a moment.
Swami Vivekananda
We are the sons of Light and children of God. Glory unto the Lord, we will succeed.
Swami Vivekananda
We must become free. We are free the work is to know it. We must give up all slavery, all bondage of whatever kind. We must not only give up our bondage to earth and everything and everybody on earth, but also to all ideas of heaven and happiness.
Swami Vivekananda
Where will you go to seek Brahman? He is immanent in all beings. Here, here is the visible Brahman! Shame on those who, neglecting the visible Brahman, set their minds on other things! Here is the visible Brahman before you as tangible as a fruit in one's hand! Can't you see? Here - here - is Brahman!
Swami Vivekananda
No authority can save us, no beliefs. If there is a God, all can find Him. No one needs to be told it is warm all can discover it for themselves. So it should be with God. He should be a fact in the consciousness of every person.
Swami Vivekananda
Man's free agency is not of the mind, for that is bound. There is no freedom there.
Swami Vivekananda
This is the great lesson that we are here to learn through myriads of births and heavens and hells - that there is nothing to be asked for, desired for, beyond one's spiritual Self (atman).
Swami Vivekananda
All the powers in the universe are already ours.
Swami Vivekananda
He whom the sages have been seeking in all these places is in our own hearts the voice that you heard was right, says Vedanta, but the direction you gave to the voice was wrong.
Swami Vivekananda
Every one is as much bound in thought, word, deed, and mind, as a piece of stone or this table. That I talk to you now is as rigorous in causation as that you listen to me. There is no freedom until you go beyond Maya. That is the real freedom of the soul.
Swami Vivekananda
In Buddha we had the great, universal heart and infinite patience, making religion practical and bringing it to everyone's door.
Swami Vivekananda
Every Hindu knows that astrologers try to fix the caste of every boy or girl as soon as he or she is born. That is the real caste - the individuality, and Jyotisha (astrology) recognises that. And we can only rise by giving it full sway again. This variety does not mean inequality, nor any special privilege.
Swami Vivekananda
Charity never faileth.
Swami Vivekananda
In a day, when you don't come across any problems - you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path
Swami Vivekananda
This is the great fact: strength is life.
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
Egotism, pride, etc. must be given up.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no help for you outside of yourself you are the creator of the universe. Like the silkworm you have built a cocoon around yourself.... Burst your own cocoon and come out as the beautiful butterfly, as the free soul. Then alone you will see Truth.
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
