Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Thoughts are living things - they travel far.
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Get rid of the bondage of body we have become slaves to it and learnt to hug our chains and love our slavery so much so that we long to perpetuate it, and go on with body body for ever. Do not cling to the idea of body, do not look for a future existence in any way like this one do not love or want the body, even of those dear to us.
Swami Vivekananda
We want to worship a living God. I have not seen anything but God all my life, nor have you... He is everywhere, saying, I am. The moment you feel I am, you are conscious of Existence. Where shall we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being?
Swami Vivekananda
Man as Atman is really free as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami Vivekananda
The calm man is not the man who is dull. You must not mistake Sattva for dullness or laziness. The calm man is the one who has control over the mind waves. Activity is the manifestation of inferior strength, calmness, of the superior.
Swami Vivekananda
Purusha is the great attraction of the universe though untouched by and unconnected with the universe, yet it attracts the whole universe.
