More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

Image
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
Image
It is the calm, forgiving, equable, well-balanced mind that does the greatest amount of work.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
No authority can save us, no beliefs. If there is a God, all can find Him. No one needs to be told it is warm all can discover it for themselves. So it should be with God. He should be a fact in the consciousness of every person.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Truth alone triumphs, not untruth. Through truth alone lies the way to Devayana (the way to the gods). Those who think that a little sugar - coating of untruth helps the spread of truth are mistaken and will find in the long run that a single drop of poison poisons the whole mass ... The man who is pure, and who dares, does all things.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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.

The moment you fear, you are nobody.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Thoughts are living things - they travel far.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Perfection is always infinite. We are the Infinite already. You and I, and all beings, are trying to manifest that infinity.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The nearer we are to God, the less we will have occasions to cry or weep. The further we are from God, the more will long faces come. The more we know God, the more misery vanishes.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Great work requires great and persistent effort for a long time. ... Character has to be established through a thousand stumbles.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
The Hindus progressed in the subjective sciences.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
To weep is a sign of weakness, of bondage.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Live for an ideal, and that one ideal alone. Let it be so great, so strong, that there may be nothing else left in the mind no place for anything else, no time for anything else.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
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
Image
Whatsoever has form must be the result of combinations of particles and requires something else behind it to move it.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Truth will never come into our minds so long as there will remain the faintest shadow of Ahamkâra (egotism). All of you should try to root out this devil from your heart. Complete self-surrender is the only way to spiritual illumination.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
Renunciation is the very basis upon which ethics stands.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
All motion in this universe is in the form of waves, successively rising and falling.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
This Maya is everywhere. It is terrible. Yet we have to work through it. The man who says that he will work when the world has become all good and then he will enjoy bliss is as likely to succeed as the man who sits beside the Ganga and says, I will ford the river when all the water has run into the ocean.
Swami Vivekananda
Image
A monk is not forbidden to marry, but if he takes a wife she becomes a monk with the same powers and privileges and occupies the same social position as her husband.
