Blame neither man, nor God, nor anyone in the world. When you find yourselves suffering, blame yourselves, and try to do better.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Life in this world is an attempt to see God.
Swami Vivekananda
Think of a space in your heart, and in the midst of that space think that a flame is burning. Think of that a flame is burning. Think of that flame as your own soul and inside the flame is another effulgent light, and that is the Soul of your soul, God. Meditate upon that in the heart.
Swami Vivekananda
When we free ourselves from name and form, especially from a body - when we need no body, good or bad - then only do we escape from bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
Buddha and Christ were second-rate heroes. The greatest men that ever live pass away unknown. They put forth no claims for themselves, establish no schools or systems in their name. They never create any stir but just melt down in love.
Swami Vivekananda
Change is inherent in every form.
Swami Vivekananda
The finer is always the cause, the grosser the effect. So the external world is the effect, the internal the cause.
Swami Vivekananda
Nothing else is necessary but these - love, sincerity, and patience.
Swami Vivekananda
Music alone can take you to the Highest!
Swami Vivekananda
Free thyself from the mighty attraction- The maddening wine of love, the charm of sex. Break the harp! Forward, with the ocean's cry!. . .
Swami Vivekananda
The idea of God grew side by side with the idea of materialism.
Swami Vivekananda
All knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind the infinite library of the universe is in our own mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Just as the body has its progress and decadence, so also has the mind, and, therefore, the mind is not the soul, because the soul can neither decay nor degenerate.
Swami Vivekananda
Your country requires heroes be heroes your duty is to go on working, and then everything will follow of itself.
Swami Vivekananda
No one is ever really taught by another each of us has to teach himself. The external teacher offers only the suggestion, which arouses the internal teacher, who helps us to understand things.
Swami Vivekananda
Man as Atman is really free as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami Vivekananda
This is the great lesson that we are here to learn through myriads of births and heavens and hells - that there is nothing to be asked for, desired for, beyond one's spiritual Self (atman).
Swami Vivekananda
He who wants to become a Bhakta must be strong, must be healthy.
Swami Vivekananda
Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.
Swami Vivekananda
Here in this blessed land, the foundation, the backbone, the life-centre is religion and religion alone.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion is not an imitation of Jesus or Mohammed. Even if an imitation is good, it is never genuine. Be not an imitation of Jesus, but be Jesus, You are quite as great as Jesus, Buddha, or anybody else. If we are not ... we must struggle and be. I would not be exactly like Jesus. It is unnecessary that I should be born a Jew.
