More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
Excepting the infinite spirit, everything else is changing. There is the whirl of change.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Nature grinds all of us. Keep count of the ounce of pleasure you get. In the long run, nature did her work through you, and when you die your body will make other plants grow. Yet we think all the time that we are getting pleasure ourselves. Thus the wheel goes round.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
In a day, when you don't come across any problems - you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path
Swami Vivekananda
Image
What is the world that is to be given up? It is here. I am carrying it all with me. My own body. It is all for this body that I put my hand voluntarily upon my fellow human beings, just to keep it nice and give it a little pleasure. It is all for the body that I injure others and make mistakes.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The law of Karma is the law of causation.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All manifest life seems to require a period of sleep, of calm, in which to gain added strength, renewed vigour, for the next manifestation, or awakening to activity. Thus is the march of all progress, of all manifest life - in waves, successive waves, [of] activity and repose. Waves succeed each other in an endless chain of progression.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Spirituality as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
It is the Prana that is manifesting as motion.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Without birth or death, eternal, ever-existing, free, unchangeable and beyond all conditions is this Soul of man - the real Self of Man - the Atman.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Let people say whatever they like, stick to your own convictions, and rest assured, the world will be at your feet. They say, Have faith in this fellow or that fellow, but I say, Have faith in yourself first, that's the way. Have faith in yourself-all power is in you-be conscious and bring it out. Say, I can do everything.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
We have wept enough. No more weeping, but stand on feet and be men.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
Change of the unchangeable would be a contradiction.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The Hindus have cultivated the power of analysis and abstraction. No nation has yet produced a grammar like that of Panini.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
So long as we perceive this world in motion, we have to conceive will behind it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Every little bit, every atom inside the universe, is in a constant state of change and motion, but the universe as a whole is unchangeable, because motion or change is a relative thing we can only think of something in motion in comparison with something which is not moving.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Law is death. The more of the law in a country, the worse for the country.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
What we want now is an immense awakening of Râjasika energy, for the whole country is wrapped in the shroud of Tamas. The people of this land must be fed and clothed-must be awakened -must be made more fully active. Otherwise they will become inert, as inert as trees and stones. So, I say, eat large quantities of fish and meat, my boy!
