More quotes by Swami Vivekananda
The Land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness - it is India.
Swami Vivekananda
Meditation is a sort of prayer and prayer is meditation. The highest meditation is to think of nothing. If you can remain one moment without thought, great power will come.
Swami Vivekananda
Form and formless are intertwined in this world. The formless can only be expressed in form and form can only be thought with the formless.
Swami Vivekananda
The great Vaishnava religion of India has also sprung from a Tamil Pariah - Shathakopa - who was a dealer in winnowing-fans but was a Yogin all the while.
Swami Vivekananda
I want to start two institutions, one in Madras and one in Calcutta, to carry out my plan and that plan briefly is to bring the Vedantic ideals into the everyday practical life of the saint or the sinner, of the sage or the ignoramus, of the Brahmin or the Pariah.
Swami Vivekananda
Change is always in regard to something which does not change, or which changes relatively less.
Swami Vivekananda
The Hindus have to learn a little bit of materialism from the West and teach them a little bit of spirituality.
Swami Vivekananda
To the person who desires nothing and does not get entangled in desires, the manifold changes of nature are one panorama of beauty and sublimity.
Swami Vivekananda
You have no more anger when you are all love, bliss, infinite existence. . . .
Swami Vivekananda
Never talk about the faults of others, no matter how bad they may be. Nothing is ever gained by that. You never help one by talking about his fault you do him an injury, and injure yourself as well.
Swami Vivekananda
The Hindus have cultivated the power of analysis and abstraction. No nation has yet produced a grammar like that of Panini.
Swami Vivekananda
Suppose cats became philosophers, they would see a cat universe and have a cat solution of the problem of the universe, and a cat ruling it. So we see from this that our explanation of the universe is not the whole of the solution.
Swami Vivekananda
Above all, India is the land of religion.
Swami Vivekananda
The Vedas give information on various subjects. They have come together and form one book. And in later times, when other subjects were separated from religion - when astronomy and astrology were taken out of religion - these subjects, being connected with the Vedas and being ancient, were considered very holy.
Swami Vivekananda
This caste system had grown by the practice of the son always following the business of the father.
Swami Vivekananda
Marriage is an institution very safely guarded.
Swami Vivekananda
If I, as an Oriental have to worship Jesus of Nazareth, there is only one way, that is, to worship him as God and nothing else.
Swami Vivekananda
The sign of vigour, the sign of life, the sign of hope, the sign of health, the sign of everything that is good, is strength. As long as the body lives, there must be strength in the body, strength in the mind, [and strength] in the hand.
Swami Vivekananda
There is salvation only for the brave.
Swami Vivekananda
All is the Self or Brahman. The saint, the sinner, the lamb, the tiger, even the murderer, as far as they have any reality, can be nothing else, because there is nothing else.
Swami Vivekananda
