More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The mind has to be gradually and systematically brought under control.
Swami Vivekananda
Man is the apex of the only world we can ever know.
Swami Vivekananda
You must keep a strict eye on your health let everything else be subordinated to that.
Swami Vivekananda
Have charity towards all beings. Pity those who are in distress. Love all creatures. Do not be jealous of anyone. Look not to the faults of others.
Swami Vivekananda
This external worship of images has, however, been described in all our Shastras as the lowest of all the low forms of worship. But that does not mean that it is a wrong thing to do.
Swami Vivekananda
We must travel we must go to foreign parts. We must see how the engine of society works in other countries, and keep free and open communication with what is going on in the minds of other nations, if we really want to be a nation again.
Swami Vivekananda
Whenever there is a conflict between the pure heart and the intellect, always side with the pure heart.
Swami Vivekananda
Let him who has courage in his mind and love in his heart come with me. I want none else.
Swami Vivekananda
It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
Swami Vivekananda
Buddha and Christ were second-rate heroes. The greatest men that ever live pass away unknown. They put forth no claims for themselves, establish no schools or systems in their name. They never create any stir but just melt down in love.
Swami Vivekananda
It may be that I shall find it good to get outside of my body - to cast it off like a disused garment. But I shall not cease to work! I shall inspire men everywhere, until the world shall know that it is one with God.
Swami Vivekananda
No two persons have the same mind or the same body.
Swami Vivekananda
If there be no eternal life, still the enjoyment of spiritual thoughts as ideals is keener and makes a man happier, whilst the foolery of materialism leads to competition and undue ambition and ultimate death, individual and national.
Swami Vivekananda
Only by practice and non-attachment can we conquer mind.
Swami Vivekananda
Everything that occupies space has form. The formless can only be infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
A monk is not forbidden to marry, but if he takes a wife she becomes a monk with the same powers and privileges and occupies the same social position as her husband.
Swami Vivekananda
Even the least work done for others awakens the power within even thinking the least good of others gradually instills into the heart the strength of a lion.
Swami Vivekananda
What is the world that is to be given up? It is here. I am carrying it all with me. My own body. It is all for this body that I put my hand voluntarily upon my fellow human beings, just to keep it nice and give it a little pleasure. It is all for the body that I injure others and make mistakes.
Swami Vivekananda
Be grateful that the poor man is there, so that by making a gift to him you are able to help yourself
Swami Vivekananda
And what causes fear? Ignorance of our own nature.
Swami Vivekananda
