More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
We are suffering from our own Karma. It is not the fault of God. What we do is our own fault, nothing else. Why should God be blamed?. . .
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 Hindus have cultivated the power of analysis and abstraction. No nation has yet produced a grammar like that of Panini.
Swami Vivekananda
Spirituality is the science of the Soul.
Swami Vivekananda
Accumulate power in silence and become a dynamo of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
We want to know in order to make ourselves free. That is our life: one universal cry for freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
The law of Karma is the law of causation.
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
My brother, do men grieve over the fight of cats and dogs? So the jealousy, envy, and elbowing of common men should make no impression on your mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Meditation is a sort of prayer and prayer is meditation. The highest meditation is to think of nothing. If you can remain one moment without thought, great power will come.
Swami Vivekananda
To be good and to do good-that is the whole of religion.
Swami Vivekananda
As soon as I think that I am a little body, I want to preserve it, to protect it, to keep it nice, at the expense of other bodies then you and I become separate.
Swami Vivekananda
First, believe in the world - that there is meaning behind everything.
Swami Vivekananda
You are strong, omnipotent, and omniscient. No matter that you have not expressed it yet, it is in you. All knowledge is in you, all power, all purity, and all freedom-why cannot you express this knowledge? Because you do not believe in it... Believe in it, and it must and will come out.
Swami Vivekananda
Purusha is the great attraction of the universe though untouched by and unconnected with the universe, yet it attracts the whole universe.
Swami Vivekananda
If a man, day and night, thinks he is miserable, low and nothing, nothing he becomes. If you say yea, yea, I am, I am, so shall you be.
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
Get away from all books and forms and let your soul see its Self. We are deluded and maddened by books, Shri Krishna declares.
Swami Vivekananda
Eka-Nishtha or devotion to one ideal is absolutely necessary for the beginner in the practice of religious devotion.
Swami Vivekananda
You and I and everything in the universe are that Absolute, not parts, but the whole. You are the whole of that Absolute, and so are all others, because the idea of part cannot come into it.
Swami Vivekananda
