More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Swami Vivekananda
Be strong, my young friends that is my advice to you.
Swami Vivekananda
Superstitions are all materialism, because they are all based on the consciousness of body, body, body. No spirit there. Spirit has no superstitions - it is beyond the vain desires of the body.
Swami Vivekananda
Where no bondage is, there is no cause and effect.
Swami Vivekananda
If in this hell of a world one can bring a little joy and peace even for a day into the heart of a single person, that much alone is true this I have learnt after suffering all my life all else is mere moonshine.
Swami Vivekananda
The greatest sin is to think yourself weak
Swami Vivekananda
The cheerful mind perseveres and the strong mind hews its way through a thousand difficulties.
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
To cowards what advice shall I offer? - nothing whatsoever have I to say.
Swami Vivekananda
Astrology and all these mystical things are generally signs of a weak mind therefore as soon as they are becoming prominent in our minds, we should see a physician, take good food, and rest.
Swami Vivekananda
If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.
Swami Vivekananda
Each man is divine. Each man that you see is a God by his very nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Anything that is in space has form. Space itself has form. Either you are in space, or space is in you. The soul is beyond all space. Space is in the soul, not the soul in space.
Swami Vivekananda
It is not God's fault. It is our fault that we suffer. Whatever we sow we reap.
Swami Vivekananda
He who wants to become a Bhakta must be strong, must be healthy.
Swami Vivekananda
Perfection is always infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
Oh, if only you knew yourselves! You are souls you are Gods. If ever I feel like blaspheming, it is when I call you man.
Swami Vivekananda
In a conflict between the heart and the brain, follow your heart.
Swami Vivekananda
I want to start two institutions, one in Madras and one in Calcutta, to carry out my plan and that plan briefly is to bring the Vedantic ideals into the everyday practical life of the saint or the sinner, of the sage or the ignoramus, of the Brahmin or the Pariah.
Swami Vivekananda
An allopath comes and treats cholera patients and gives them his medicines. The Homeopath comes and gives his medicines and cures perhaps more than the allopath does because the Homoeopath does not disturb the patients but allows the nature to deal with them.
