More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Charity is great, but the moment you say it is all, you run the risk of running into materialism.
Swami Vivekananda
Immediately you will be perfect, you will become God.
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
In the English character, the give and take policy, the business principle of the trader, is principally inherent.
Swami Vivekananda
We are bound to earth by desire and also to God, heaven, and the angels. A slave is a slave whether to man, to God, or to angels.
Swami Vivekananda
As soon as we identify ourselves with the work we do, we feel miserable but if we do not identify ourselves with it, we do not feel that misery.
Swami Vivekananda
The Vedanta recognizes no sin it only recognizes error. And the greatest error, says the Vedanta is to say that you are weak, that you are a sinner, a miserable creature, and that you have no power and you cannot do this and that.
Swami Vivekananda
The first angle is, love questions not. It is not a beggar. ... When love asks nothing, [when it] gives everything. This is the real spiritual worship, the worship through love. Whether God is merciful is no longer questioned. He is God He is my love. Whether God is omnipotent and almighty, limited or unlimited , is no longer questioned.
Swami Vivekananda
Man can think of divine things only in his own human way, to us the Absolute can be expressed only in our relative language.
Swami Vivekananda
Through the senses, anger comes, and sorrow comes.
Swami Vivekananda
Do not wait for anybody or anything. Do whatever you can. Build your hope on none.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the calm, forgiving, equable, well-balanced mind that does the greatest amount of work.
Swami Vivekananda
We have to keep the body in good health we have to take care of what we eat and drink, and what we do.
Swami Vivekananda
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
Music is the highest art and to those who understand, is the highest worship
Swami Vivekananda
. . . If you are really my children, you will fear nothing, stop at nothing. You will be like lions. We must rouse India and the whole world. No cowardice.
Swami Vivekananda
Even the least work done for others awakens the power within even thinking the least good of others gradually instills into the heart the strength of a lion.
Swami Vivekananda
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
Have charity towards all beings. Pity those who are in distress. Love all creatures. Do not be jealous of anyone. Look not to the faults of others.
Swami Vivekananda
I have come to this conclusion that there is only one country in the world which understands religion - it is India.
