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.

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
You gain nothing by becoming cowards.
Swami Vivekananda
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Swami Vivekananda
When once you consider an action, do not let anything dissuade you. Consult your heart, not others, and then follow its dictates.
Swami Vivekananda
Give up the awful disease that is creeping into our national blood, that idea of ridiculing everything, that loss of seriousness. Give that up. Be strong and have this Shraddha, and everything else is bound to follow.
Swami Vivekananda
Truth will never come into our minds so long as there will remain the faintest shadow of Ahamkâra (egotism). All of you should try to root out this devil from your heart. Complete self-surrender is the only way to spiritual illumination.
Swami Vivekananda
Each one of you has a glorious future if you dare believe me. Have a tremendous faith in yourselves, like the faith I had when I was I was young... Have that faith, each one of you, in yourself - that eternal power is lodged in every soul - and you will revive the whole of India.
Swami Vivekananda
In everything we do, the serpent ego is rising up.
Swami Vivekananda
Purity, perseverance, and energy- these three I want.
Swami Vivekananda
Know for certain that there is no power in the universe to injure us unless we first injure ourselves.
Swami Vivekananda
Watch people do their most common actions these are indeed the things that will tell you the real character of a great person.
Swami Vivekananda
Thought ceases in meditation even the mind's elements are quite quiet. Blood circulation stops. His breath stops, but he is not dead.
Swami Vivekananda
Though an atom is invisible, unthinkable, yet in it are the whole power and potency of the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything they really deserve.
Swami Vivekananda
The power of meditation gets us everything. If you want to get power over nature, [you can have it through meditation]. It is through the power of meditation all scientific facts are discovered today. They study the subject and forget everything, their own identity and everything, and then the great fact comes like a flash.
Swami Vivekananda
So long as we perceive this world in motion, we have to conceive will behind it.
Swami Vivekananda
In one sense Brahman is known to every human being he knows, I am but man does not know himself as he is.
Swami Vivekananda
Those who are acquainted with the literature of India will remember a beautiful old story about this extreme charity, how a whole family, as related in the Mahâbhârata, starved themselves to death and gave their last meal to a beggar. This is not an exaggeration, for such things still happen.
Swami Vivekananda
We believe that every being is divine, is God. Every soul is a sun covered over with clouds of ignorance the difference between soul and soul is owing to the difference in density of these layers of clouds.
Swami Vivekananda
Meditation means the mind is turned back upon itself. The mind stops all the thought-waves and the world stops. Your consciousness expands. Every time you meditate you will keep your growth.
Swami Vivekananda
Only man makes Karma.
Swami Vivekananda
