Do not fret because the world looks with suspicion at every new attempt, even though it be in the path of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Children of those ancient Aryans, through the grace of the Lord may you have the same pride, may that faith in your ancestors come into your blood, may it become a part and parcel of your lives, may it work towards the salvation of the world!

I am neither the mind, nor the intellect, nor the ego, nor the mind-stuff

A nation is not to be judged by its weaklings called the wicked, as they are only the weeds which lag behind, but by the good, the noble, and the pure, who indicate the national life current flowing clear and vigorous.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work - this is the only way. Go on remember - patience and purity and courage and steady work. . . . So long as you are pure, and true to your principles, you will never fail.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The same power is in every man, the one manifesting more, the other less the same potentiality is in everyone.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Where no bondage is, there is no cause and effect.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Let there be as little materialism as possible, with the maximum of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Oh, if only you knew yourselves! You are souls you are Gods. If ever I feel like blaspheming, it is when I call you man.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The mind has to be gradually and systematically brought under control.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All power is within you you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do anything and everything without even the guidance of any one.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
It is the subjective world that rules the objective. Change the subject, and the object is bound to change purify youreslf, and the world is bound to be purified.
