More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Gita and Ganga constitute the essence of Hinduism one its theory and the other its practice.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the product of two forces, action and reaction, which make him think.
Swami Vivekananda
Practice is absolutely necessary. You may sit down and listen to me by the hour every day, but if you do not practice, you will not get one step further. It all depends on practice.
Swami Vivekananda
The Imitation of Christ is a cherished treasure of the Christian world. This great book was written by a Roman Catholic monk. Written, perhaps, is not the proper word. It would be more appropriate to say that each letter of the book is marked deep with the heart's blood of the great soul who had renounced all for his love of Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
In nature alone are forms. That which is not of nature cannot have any forms, fine or gross. It must be formless.
Swami Vivekananda
A Sannyasin cannot belong to any religion, for his is a life of independent thought, which draws from all religions his is a life of realisation, not merely of theory or belief, much less of dogma.
Swami Vivekananda
We are ever free if we would only believe it, only have faith enough.
Swami Vivekananda
We do not progress from error to truth, but from truth to truth
Swami Vivekananda
May the Lord ordain that your son becomes a man, and never a coward!
Swami Vivekananda
Where God is, there is no other. Where world is, there is no God. These two will never unite. Like light and darkness.
Swami Vivekananda
Why should a Man be Moral? Because this strengthens his will.
Swami Vivekananda
This body is a combination. It is only a fiction to say that I have one body, you another, and the sun another.
Swami Vivekananda
Marriage is an institution very safely guarded.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything that you do under compulsion goes to build up attachment.
Swami Vivekananda
The mind is but the subtle part of the body. You must retain great strength in your mind and words.
Swami Vivekananda
Even the lowest of the Hindus, the Pariah, has less of the brute in him than a Briton in a similar social status. This is the result of an old and excellent religious civilization. This evolution to a higher spiritual state is possible only through discipline and education.
Swami Vivekananda
We shall have to work like lions, keeping the ideal before us, without caring whether the wise ones praise or blame us.
Swami Vivekananda
Give up the awful disease that is creeping into our national blood, that idea of ridiculing everything, that loss of seriousness. Give that up. Be strong and have this Shraddha, and everything else is bound to follow.
Swami Vivekananda
You have no more anger when you are all love, bliss, infinite existence. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
It's the coward who says, 'This is fate'...It's the strong who stands up & says 'I will make my fate'
Swami Vivekananda
