Man the infinite dreamer, dreaming finite dreams!
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Ordinary love is mere animal attraction. Otherwise why is the distinction between the sexes? If one kneels before an image, it is dreadful idolatry but if one kneels before husband or wife, it is quite permissible!
Swami Vivekananda
Neither seek nor avoid, take what comes.
Swami Vivekananda
