More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The varieties of religious belief are an advantage, since all faiths are good, so far as they encourage us to lead a religious life. The more sects there are, the more opportunities there are for making a successful appeal to the divine instinct in all of us.
Swami Vivekananda
The first angle is, love questions not. It is not a beggar. ... When love asks nothing, [when it] gives everything. This is the real spiritual worship, the worship through love. Whether God is merciful is no longer questioned. He is God He is my love. Whether God is omnipotent and almighty, limited or unlimited , is no longer questioned.
Swami Vivekananda
He who asserts he is free, shall be free. He who says he is bound, bound he shall remain.
Swami Vivekananda
The world cares little for principles. They care for persons.
Swami Vivekananda
Purusha is the great attraction of the universe though untouched by and unconnected with the universe, yet it attracts the whole universe.
Swami Vivekananda
Always discriminate-your body, your house, the people and the world are all absolutely unreal like a dream. Always think that the body is only an inert instrument. And the Atman within is your real nature.
Swami Vivekananda
Whatever you are doing, put your whole mind on it. If you are shooting, your mind should be only on the target. Then you will never miss. If you are learning your lessons, think only of the lesson. In India boys and girls are taught to do this.
Swami Vivekananda
None deserves liberty who is not ready to give liberty
Swami Vivekananda
The Indian mind is first religious, then anything else. So this is to be strengthened.
Swami Vivekananda
All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is therefore the only law of life. He who loves lives, he who is selfish is dying. Therefore love for love's sake, because it is the only law of life, just as you breathe to live.
Swami Vivekananda
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
Swami Vivekananda
In the primal state before any manifestation, when there was no motion but perfect balance, this Prakriti was indestructible, because decomposition or death comes from instability or change.
Swami Vivekananda
. . . Wait, my child, wait and work on. Patience, patience. . . . .
Swami Vivekananda
Out of this idea of separation between atom and atom comes all misery.
Swami Vivekananda
There is no salvation for man until he sees God, realises his own soul.
Swami Vivekananda
You know the disease, you know the remedy, only have faith.
Swami Vivekananda
Two attempts have been made in the world to found social life: the one was upon religion, and the other was upon social necessity. The one was founded upon spirituality, the other upon materialism the one upon transcendentalism, the other upon realism.
Swami Vivekananda
The perfect man sees nothing but God.
Swami Vivekananda
A form comes out of a combination of force and matter.
Swami Vivekananda
Women will work out their destinies — much better, too, than men can ever do for them. All the mischief to women has come because men undertook to shape the destiny of women.
Swami Vivekananda
