Ishvara is the highest manifestation of the Absolute Reality, or in other words, the highest possible reading of the Absolute by the human mind. Creation is eternal, and so also is Ishvara.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Accumulate power in silence and become a dynamo of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
When we come to nonattachment, then we can understand the marvelous mystery of the universe: how it is intense activity and at the same time intense peace, how it is work every moment and rest every moment.
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
A man must not only have faith but intellectual faith too. To make a man take up everything and believe it, would be to make him a lunatic.
Swami Vivekananda
Karma is the eternal assertion of human freedom. . . . Our thoughts, our words, and deeds are the threads of the net which we throw around ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Know it for certain that without steady devotion for the Guru and unflinching patience and perseverance, nothing is to be achieved. You must have strict morality.
Swami Vivekananda
With eternal faith in Him, set fire to the mountain of misery that has been heaped upon India for ages - and it shall be burned down.
Swami Vivekananda
I am teaching you now about it, but how many of you will practice it?
Swami Vivekananda
Do not say, ‘You are bad’ say only, ‘You are good’, but be better!
Swami Vivekananda
One thing I must tell you. Idolatry in India does not mean anything horrible. It is not the mother of harlots.
Swami Vivekananda
The Atman alone is eternal. Hospitals will tumble down. Railroad givers will all die. This earth will be blown to pieces, suns wiped out. The Atman endures for ever.
Swami Vivekananda
Service to man is service to god
Swami Vivekananda
The varieties of religious belief are an advantage, since all faiths are good, so far as they encourage us to lead a religious life. The more sects there are, the more opportunities there are for making a successful appeal to the divine instinct in all of us.
Swami Vivekananda
Superstition is great enemy of man but bigotry is worse.
Swami Vivekananda
Each one of us reaps what we ourselves have sown. These miseries under which we suffer, these bondages under which we struggle, have been caused by ourselves, and none else in the universe is to blame. God is the least to blame for it.
Swami Vivekananda
If you can get absolutely still for just one moment, you have reached the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith that you are all, my brave lads, born to do great things! Let not the barks of puppies frighten you, no, not even the thunderbolts of heaven, but stand up and work!
Swami Vivekananda
Where no bondage is, there is no cause and effect.
Swami Vivekananda
I have a message for the world, which I will deliver without fear and care for the future. To the reformers I will point out that I am a greater reformer than any one of them. They want to reform only little bits. I want root-and-branch reform.
Swami Vivekananda
Man's experience in the world is to enable him to get out of its whirlpool.
