Self-love is the first teacher of self-renunciation.

Where no bondage is, there is no cause and effect.
Swami Vivekananda

Thought ceases in meditation even the mind's elements are quite quiet. Blood circulation stops. His breath stops, but he is not dead.
Swami Vivekananda

Always remember that renunciation is the root idea. Unless one is initiated into this idea, not even Brahma and the World - gods have the power to attain Mukti
Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda
Image
Whenever two particles come together, they are held by a certain attraction and there will come a time when those particles will separate. This is the eternal law. So, wherever there is a body - either grosser or finer, either in heaven or on earth - death will overcome it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Religion is the life of India, religion is the language of this country, the symbol of all its movements.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
You must keep a strict eye on your health let everything else be subordinated to that.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
I have a message for the world, which I will deliver without fear and care for the future. To the reformers I will point out that I am a greater reformer than any one of them. They want to reform only little bits. I want root-and-branch reform.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Until higher institutions have been evolved, any attempt to break the old ones will be disastrous.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
Even the lowest of the low have the Atman (Soul) inside, which never dies and never is born, immortal, without beginning or end, the all pure, omnipotent and omnipresent Atman!
