More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
Chemistry ceases to improve when one element is found from which all others are deductible. Physics ceases to progress when one force is found of which all others are manifestations. So religion ceases to progress when unity is reached, which is the case with Hinduism.
Swami Vivekananda
It is the greatest manifestation of power to be calm.
Swami Vivekananda
You must also remember that the world has God to govern it, and He has not left it to our charity. The Lord God is its Governor and Maintainer, and in spite of these wine fanatics and cigar fanatics, and all sorts of marriage fanatics, it would go on. If all these persons were to die, it would go on none the worse.
Swami Vivekananda
Be Grateful to the Man you help, think of Him as God. Is it not a great privilege to be allowed to worship God by helping our fellow men?
Swami Vivekananda
We have to keep the body in good health we have to take care of what we eat and drink, and what we do.
Swami Vivekananda
In everything we do, the serpent ego is rising up.
Swami Vivekananda
In real meditation you forget the body. You may be cut to pieces and not feel it at all. You feel such pleasure in it. You become so light. This perfect rest we will get in meditation.
Swami Vivekananda
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
The history of the world is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves
Swami Vivekananda
Think day and night, I am of the essence of that Supreme Existence, Knowledge, Bliss-what fear and anxiety have I? This body, mind, and intellect are all transient, and That which is beyond these is myself.
Swami Vivekananda
Woman has suffered for eons, and that has given her infinite patience and infinite perseverance.
Swami Vivekananda
Face the brutes. That is a lesson for all life-face the terrible, face it boldly. Like the monkeys, the hardships of life fall back when we cease to flee before them.
Swami Vivekananda
Freedom can never be reached by the weak. Throw away all weakness. Tell your body that it is strong, tell your mind that it is strong, and have unbounded faith and hope in yourself.
Swami Vivekananda
It is faith that makes a lion of a man.
Swami Vivekananda
With eternal faith in Him, set fire to the mountain of misery that has been heaped upon India for ages - and it shall be burned down.
Swami Vivekananda
All sectarian religions take for granted that all men are equal. This is not warranted by science. There is more difference between minds than between bodies. One fundamental doctrine of Hinduism is that all men are different, there being unity in variety. Even for a drunkard, there are some Mantras-even for a man going to a prostitute!
Swami Vivekananda
The householder must always please his wife with money, clothes, love and faith and never do anything to disturb her. That man who has succeeded in getting the love of a chaste wife has succeeded in his religion and has all the virtues.
Swami Vivekananda
You nourish your minds by reading books. There is no good in doing that unless you hold it also as a sacrifice to the whole world. For the whole world is one you are rated a very insignificant part of it, and therefore it is right for you that you should serve your millions of brothers rather than aggrandise this little self
Swami Vivekananda
It is nature that is changing, not the soul of man. This never changes.
Swami Vivekananda
Seeing a cat loving her kittens stand and pray. God has become manifest there literally believe this. Repeat I am Thine, I am Thine, for we can see God everywhere. Do not seek for Him, just see Him.
Swami Vivekananda
