Swami Vivekananda
The more opposition there is, the better. Does a river acquire velocity unless there is resistance? The newer and better a thing is, the more opposition I will meet with at the outset. It is opposition which foretells success. Where there is no opposition there is no success either.
Swami Vivekananda
One ounce of practice is worth a thousand pounds of theory.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is born to conquer nature and not to follow it.
Swami Vivekananda
Evil company is always to be shunned because it leads to lust and anger, illusion, forgetfulness of the goal, destruction of the will (lack of perseverance), and destruction of everything. (Narada Bhakti Sutra)
Swami Vivekananda
What we want is progress, development, realisation.
Swami Vivekananda
From Him are all name and form all the animals and men are from Him. He is the one Supreme. He who knows Him becomes free.
Swami Vivekananda
The householder must always please his wife with money, clothes, love and faith and never do anything to disturb her. That man who has succeeded in getting the love of a chaste wife has succeeded in his religion and has all the virtues.
Swami Vivekananda
Believe in yourself and the world will be at your feet.
Swami Vivekananda
The wind of divine grace is always blowing. You just need to spread your sail. Whenever you do anything, do it with your whole heart concentrated on it. Think day and night, I am of the essence of that Supreme Being-Consciousness-Bliss. What fear and anxiety have I?
Swami Vivekananda
