More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Never producing pain by thought, word, and deed, in any living being, is what is called Ahimsâ, non-injury.
Swami Vivekananda
Feel, my children, feel feel for the poor, the ignorant, the downtrodden feel till the heart stops and the brain reels and you think you will go mad then pour the soul out at the feet of the Lord, and then will come power, help and indomitable energy.
Swami Vivekananda
Something cannot be made out of nothing. Nor can something be made to go back to nothing.
Swami Vivekananda
The Pariahs, our fellow beings, ought to be educated by the higher castes.
Swami Vivekananda
Happiness presents itself to man, wearing the crown of sorrow on its head. He who welcomes it must also welcome sorrow.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of woman is improved. It is not possible for a bird to fly on only one wing. There is no hope for that family or country where there is no estimation of women, where they live in sadness. For this reason, they have to be raised first.
Swami Vivekananda
We are slaves in the hands of nature - slaves to a bit of bread, slaves to praise, slaves to blame, slaves to wife, to husband, to child, slaves to everything.
Swami Vivekananda
Man as Atman is really free as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of practice is worth a thousand pounds of theory.
Swami Vivekananda
We are the living devils.
Swami Vivekananda
The body must be properly taken care of. The people who torture their flesh are demoniacal.
Swami Vivekananda
I am what I am, and what I am is always due to him whatever in me or in my words is good and true and eternal came to me from his mouth, his heart, his soul. Sri Ramakrishna is the spring of this phase of the earth's religious life, of its impulses and activities. If I can show the world one glimpse of my Master, I shall not have lived in vain.
Swami Vivekananda
Well has it been said that man is the only animal that naturally looks upwards every other animal naturally looks down.
Swami Vivekananda
Every time you think of doing some charity, you think there is some beggar to take your charity. If you say, O Lord, let the world be full of charitable people! - you mean, let the world be full of beggars also. Let the world be full of good works - let the world be full of misery. This is out-and-out slavishness!
Swami Vivekananda
Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.
Swami Vivekananda
One possessing Vairagya does not understand by Atman the individual ego but the All-pervading Lord, residing as the Self and Internal Ruler in all. He is perceivable by all as the sum total.
Swami Vivekananda
Perfection can never be attained by work.
Swami Vivekananda
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
Everybody is changing.
Swami Vivekananda
There is another way in which this idea of mercy and selfless charity can be put into practice that is, by looking upon work as worship in case we believe in a Personal God. Here we give up all the fruits our work unto the Lord, and worshipping Him thus, we have no right to expect anything from man kind for the work we do.
Swami Vivekananda
