More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
What is salvation? To live with God. Where? Anywhere. Here this moment. One moment in infinite time is quite as good as any other moment.
Swami Vivekananda
Even books are nurses, medicines are nurses. But we must work to bring about the time when man shall recognise his mastery over his own body. Herbs and medicines have power over us as long as we allow them when we become strong, these external methods are no more necessary.
Swami Vivekananda
The bane of sects, especially in Bengal, is that if any one happens to have a different opinion, he immediately starts a new sect, he has no patience to wait.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything can be sacrificed for truth, but truth cannot be sacrificed for anything.
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
Only by practice and non-attachment can we conquer mind.
Swami Vivekananda
All change is in the screen.
Swami Vivekananda
One thing I must tell you. Idolatry in India does not mean anything horrible. It is not the mother of harlots.
Swami Vivekananda
Alcohol is not the answer to all questions
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
It is nature that is changing, not the soul of man. This never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
The principles of the Vedanta not only should be preached everywhere in India, but also outside. Our thought must enter into the make-up of the minds of every nation, not through writings, but through persons.
Swami Vivekananda
Every one wants to command, and no one wants to obey and this is owing to the absence of that wonderful brahmacharya system of yore. First, learn to obey. The command will come by itself. Always first learn to be a servant, and then you will be fit to be a master.
Swami Vivekananda
Philosophy insists that there is a joy which is absolute, which never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
The sign of vigour, the sign of life, the sign of hope, the sign of health, the sign of everything that is good, is strength. As long as the body lives, there must be strength in the body, strength in the mind, [and strength] in the hand.
Swami Vivekananda
Love for yourselves means [in the end] love for everything.
Swami Vivekananda
BY the study of different RELIGIONS we find that in essence they are one.
Swami Vivekananda
The meditative state is the highest state of existence. So long as there is desire, no real happiness can come. It is only the contemplative, witness-like study of objects that brings to us real enjoyment and happiness.
Swami Vivekananda
Comfort is no test of truth on the contrary, truth is often far from being comfortable.
Swami Vivekananda
