Quote

You are incarnations of God, all of you. You are incarnations of the Almighty, Omnipresent, Divine Principle. You may laugh at me now, but the time will come when you will understand. You must. Nobody will be left behind.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
Man makes the mistake of separating himself from God and identifying himself with the body.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The ideal of womanhood in India is motherhood - that marvellous, unselfish, all - suffering, ever - forgiving mother.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The power of meditation gets us everything. If you want to get power over nature, [you can have it through meditation]. It is through the power of meditation all scientific facts are discovered today. They study the subject and forget everything, their own identity and everything, and then the great fact comes like a flash.

May He who is the Brahman of the Hindus, the Ahura-Mazda of the Zoroastrians, the Buddha of the Buddhists, the Jehovah of the Jews, the Father in Heaven of the Christians give strength to you to carry out your noble idea.
Swami Vivekananda

It is nature that is changing, not the soul of man. This never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
We know how often in our lives through laziness and cowardice we give up the battle and try to hypnotise our minds into the belief that we are brave.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Religion is not an imitation of Jesus or Mohammed. Even if an imitation is good, it is never genuine. Be not an imitation of Jesus, but be Jesus, You are quite as great as Jesus, Buddha, or anybody else. If we are not ... we must struggle and be. I would not be exactly like Jesus. It is unnecessary that I should be born a Jew.

It's the coward who says, 'This is fate'...It's the strong who stands up & says 'I will make my fate'
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Know for certain that there is no power in the universe to injure us unless we first injure ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This is the secret of spiritual life: to think that I am the Atman and not the body, and that the whole of this universe with all its relations, with all its good and all its evil, is but as a series of paintings...scenes on a canvas...of which I am the witness.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
Consciously or unconsciously, health can be transmitted. A very strong man, living with a weak man, will make him a little stronger, whether he knows it or not.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Many of us do not believe in any form of idolatry but they have no right to object when others do it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
He who has no faith in himself can never have faith in God.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The body is the external coating and the mind is the internal coating of the Atman who is the real perceiver, the real enjoyer, the being in the body who is working the body by means of the internal organ or the mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This craving for health, wealth, long life, and the like - the so - called good - is nothing but an illusion.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
An allopath comes and treats cholera patients and gives them his medicines. The Homeopath comes and gives his medicines and cures perhaps more than the allopath does because the Homoeopath does not disturb the patients but allows the nature to deal with them.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Marriage or non-marriage, good or evil, learning or ignorance, any of these is justified, if it leads to the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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.
