Image
It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Why is it that we three hundred and thirty millions of people have been ruled for the last one thousand years by any and every handful of foreigners who chose to walk over our prostrate bodies? Because they had faith in themselves and we had not.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Never talk about the faults of others, no matter how bad they may be. Nothing is ever gained by that. You never help one by talking about his fault you do him an injury, and injure yourself as well.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Relationships are more important than life,but it is important for those relationships to have life in them
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The more we grow in love and virtue and holiness, the more we see love and virtue and holiness outside. All condemnation of others really condemns ourselves. Adjust the microcosm (which is in your power to do) and the macrocosm will adjust itself for you. It is like the hydrostatic paradox, one drop of water can balance the universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The seeker's silence is the loudest form of prayer.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
I have long given up the idea of a little house on the Ganges, as I have not the money.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Change is inherent in every form.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
There is no motion in a straight line. A straight line infinitely projected becomes a circle.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Be not in despair, the way is very difficult, like walking on the edge of a razor yet despair not, arise, awake, and find the ideal, the goal.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Think of a space in your heart, and in the midst of that space think that a flame is burning. Think of that a flame is burning. Think of that flame as your own soul and inside the flame is another effulgent light, and that is the Soul of your soul, God. Meditate upon that in the heart.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Christ said, Resist not evil, and we do not understand it until we discover that it is not only moral but actually the best policy, for anger is loss of energy to the man who displays it. You should not allow your minds to come into those brain-combinations of anger and hatred.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
I am neither man nor angel. I have no sex nor limit. I am knowledge itself. I am He. I have neither anger nor hatred. I have neither pain nor pleasure. Death or birth I never had. For I am Knowledge Absolute, and Bliss Absolute. I am He, my soul, I am He!
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Behind my work was ambition, behind my love was personality, behind my purity was fear, behind my guidance the thirst for power. Now they are vanishing and I drift. I come, Mother, I come, in Thy warm bosom, floating wheresoever Thou takest me, in the voiceless, in the strange, in the wonderland, I come - a spectator, no more an actor.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
There is only one Soul in the Universe. There is no 'you' or 'me' all variety is merged into the absolute unity, the one infinite existence - God.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All motion, either in the body or anywhere else, is the work of this Prana.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This is the one great idea to understand that our power is already ours, our salvation is already within us.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
He who struggles is better than he who never attempts
