More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Everything is easy when you are busy. But nothing is easy when you are lazy.
Swami Vivekananda
From attachment comes longing, and longing breeds anger. From anger comes delusion, and from delusion, confused memory. From confused memory comes the ruin of discrimination and from the ruin of discrimination, a man perishes.
Swami Vivekananda
None of us have yet seen an ideally perfect man, and yet without that ideal we cannot progress.
Swami Vivekananda
The real work is in the practice.
Swami Vivekananda
All change is in the screen.
Swami Vivekananda
Be an atheist if you want, but do not believe in anything unquestioningly.
Swami Vivekananda
We shall progress inch by inch.
Swami Vivekananda
External nature is only internal nature writ large.
Swami Vivekananda
Charity is great, but the moment you say it is all, you run the risk of running into materialism.
Swami Vivekananda
Liberty is the first condition of growth. It is wrong, a thousand times wrong, if any of you dares to say, 'I will work out the salvation of this woman or child.
Swami Vivekananda
Turn thy gaze inward, wherein resides the Supreme Self.
Swami Vivekananda
Hindus believe in God positively. Buddhism does not try to know whether He is or not.
Swami Vivekananda
Internal and external nature, mind and matter, are in time and space, and are bound by the law of causation.
Swami Vivekananda
Be moral. Be brave. Be a heart-whole man, strictly moral, brave unto desperation. Don't bother your head with religious theories. Cowards only sin, brave men never, no, not even in mind.
Swami Vivekananda
In everything, there are two kinds of development-analytical and synthetical. In the former the Hindus excel other nations. In the latter they are nil.
Swami Vivekananda
The test of having ceased to be an idolater is: When you say 'I', does the body come into your thought or not? If it does, then you are still a worshipper of idols.
Swami Vivekananda
In this external world, which is full of finite things, it is impossible to see and find the Infinite. The Infinite must be sought in that alone which is infinite, and the only thing infinite about us is that which is within us, our own soul. Neither the body, nor the mind, nor even our thoughts, nor the world we see around us, is infinite.
Swami Vivekananda
Holy meditation helps to burn out all mental impurities.
Swami Vivekananda
As body, mind, or soul, you are a dream you really are Being, Consciousness, Bliss (satchidananda). You are the God of this universe.
Swami Vivekananda
I hear, Western people say, The world was created for us. If tigers could write books, they would say, man was created for them and that man is a most sinful animal, because he does not allow him (the tiger) to catch him easily. The worm that crawls under your feet today is a God to be.
