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.

Friends or foes, they are all instruments in Her hands to help us work out our own karma, through pleasure or pain. As such, ‘Mother’ bless all.

Swami Vivekananda

From the highest god to the meanest grass, the same power is present in all – whether manifested or not. We shall have to call forth that power by going from door to door.

Swami Vivekananda

Give up all desire for enjoyment in earth or heaven. Control the organs of the senses and control the mind. Bear every misery without even knowing that you are miserable. Think of nothing but spiritual freedom.

Swami Vivekananda

Go on saying, I am free. Never mind if the next moment delusion comes and says, I am bound. Dehypnotize the whole thing.

Swami Vivekananda

God did not give me everything that i wanted. But, He gave me everything that I needed!

Swami Vivekananda

God is very merciful to those whom He sees struggling heart and soul for spiritual realization. But remain idle, without any struggle, and you will see that His grace will never come.

Swami Vivekananda

Had I lived in Palestine, in the days of Jesus of Nazareth, I would have washed his feet, not with my tears, but with my heart’s blood!

Swami Vivekananda

Have Faith in Man, whether he appears to you to be a very learned one or a most ignorant one.
