More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
You have no more anger when you are all love, bliss, infinite existence. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
To be unselfish, perfectly selfless, is salvation itself for the man within dies, and God alone remains.
Swami Vivekananda
The powers of the mind should be concentrated and the mind turned back upon itself as the darkest places reveal their secrets before the penetrating rays of the sun, so will the concentrated mind penetrate its own innermost secrets.
Swami Vivekananda
Mind you, there is no value in learning. You are all mistaken in learning. The only value of knowledge is in the strengthening, the disciplining, of the mind.
Swami Vivekananda
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
The essence of Vedanta is that there is but one Being and that every soul is that Being in full, not a part of that Being.
Swami Vivekananda
You yourselves are the Being you are seeking.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the Prana that is manifesting as motion.
Swami Vivekananda
All these ideas such as astrology, although there may be a grain of truth in them, should be avoided.
Swami Vivekananda
It may be that I shall find it good to get outside of my body - to cast it off like a disused garment. But I shall not cease to work! I shall inspire men everywhere, until the world shall know that it is one with God.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is not in fault.
Swami Vivekananda
If you really want the good of others, the whole universe may stand against you and cannot hurt you. It must crumble before your power of the Lord Himself in you if you are sincere and really unselfish.
Swami Vivekananda
Do not wait for anybody or anything. Do whatever you can. Build your hope on none.
Swami Vivekananda
Present-day Hinduism and Buddhism were growths from the same branch. Buddhism degenerated, and Shankara lopped it off!
Swami Vivekananda
Your way is the best for you, but that is no sign it is the best for another.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the nature of the brute to remain where he is (not to progress) it is the nature of man to seek good and avoid evil it is the nature of God to seek neither, but just to be eternally blissful. Let us be God!
Swami Vivekananda
The only test of goods things is that they make us strong.
Swami Vivekananda
Perfect sincerity, holiness, gigantic intellect, and all-conquering will. Let only a handful of men work with these, and the whole world will be revolutionized.
Swami Vivekananda
Because the Soul is not made of matter, since it is spiritual, it cannot obey the laws of matter, it cannot be judged by the laws of matter.
Swami Vivekananda
Stand upon the Atman, then only can we truly love the world. Take a very, very high stand knowing our universal nature, we must look with perfect calmness upon all the panorama of the world.
