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

See here, how fresh is the air, there is the Ganga, and the Sadhus (holy men) are practising meditation, and holding lofty talks! While the moment you will go to Calcutta, you will be thinking of nasty stuff.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Whatever is weak, avoid! It is death.
Swami Vivekananda

It is a good discipline to be forced to work for work's sake, even to the length of not being allowed to enjoy the fruits of one's labour.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Truth will never come into our minds so long as there will remain the faintest shadow of Ahamkâra (egotism). All of you should try to root out this devil from your heart. Complete self-surrender is the only way to spiritual illumination.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The same power is in every man, the one manifesting more, the other less the same potentiality is in everyone.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The mind is but the subtle part of the body. You must retain great strength in your mind and words.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Only when a man sees this universe as God does the veil fall from his eyes then that man, purified and cleansed, finds his whole vision changed.
