Do not cling to the idea of body, do not look for a future existence in any way like this one do not love or want the body, even of those dear to us.

Swami Vivekananda
Each nation has a theme: everything else is secondary. India's theme is religion.
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Mankind ought to be taught that religions are but the varied expressions of THE RELIGION, which is Oneness, so that each may choose the path that suits him best.
Swami Vivekananda
This intelligence itself is modified into what we call egoism, and this intelligence is the cause of all the powers in the body. It covers the whole ground, sub-consciousness, consciousness, and super-consciousness.
Swami Vivekananda
Even our smallest attempts are not in vain. We know that nothing is lost.
Swami Vivekananda
The kingdom of heaven is within us. The Jewish idea was a kingdom of heaven upon this earth. That was not the idea of Jesus.
