More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The sign of death is weakness.
Swami Vivekananda
Astrology and all these mystical things are generally signs of a weak mind
Swami Vivekananda
Man always is perfect, or he never could become so but he had to realise it.
Swami Vivekananda
There is only one sin and it is: weakness. When I was a boy, I read Milton's Paradise Lost. The only good man I had any respect for was Satan. The only saint is that person who never weakens, faces everything, and determines die game.
Swami Vivekananda
Take up an idea, devote yourself to it, struggle on in patience, and the sun will rise for you.
Swami Vivekananda
Work done for the Self gives no bondage. Neither desire pleasure nor fear pain from work. It is the mind and body that work, not I. Tell yourself this unceasingly and realise it. Try not to know that you work.
Swami Vivekananda
Have faith. We will do
Swami Vivekananda
That is good. It is a law of nature. That is the way with all founders of religion. Without persecution superior ideas cannot penetrate into the heart of society.
Swami Vivekananda
An allopath comes and treats cholera patients and gives them his medicines. The Homeopath comes and gives his medicines and cures perhaps more than the allopath does because the Homoeopath does not disturb the patients but allows the nature to deal with them.
Swami Vivekananda
The truths of Upanishadas are before you. Take them up, live up to them, and the salvation of Bharat will be at hand.
Swami Vivekananda
As soon as you know the voice and understand what it is, the whole scene changes. The same world which was the ghastly battlefield of maya is now changed into something good and beautiful.
Swami Vivekananda
Religion in India culminates in freedom.
Swami Vivekananda
As the different streams, having their sources in different places, all mingle their water in the sea O Lord, so the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee.
Swami Vivekananda
Spirituality as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.
Swami Vivekananda
It is only work that is done as freewill offering to humanity and to nature that does not bring with it any binding attachment.
Swami Vivekananda
In every attempt there are many obstacles to cope with, but gradually the path becomes smooth.
Swami Vivekananda
I have come to deal with principles. I have only to preach that God comes again and again, and that He came in India as Krishna, Rama, and Buddha, and that He will come again. It can almost be demonstrated that after each 500 years the world sinks, and a tremendous spiritual wave comes, and on the top of the wave is a Christ.
Swami Vivekananda
The Absolute and the Infinite can become this universe only by limitation.
Swami Vivekananda
Don't look back—forward, infinite energy, infinite enthusiasm, infinite daring, and infinite patience—then alone can great deeds be accomplished.
Swami Vivekananda
Let new India arise out of peasants' cottage, grasping the plough, out of huts, cobbler and sweeper.
Swami Vivekananda
