The man who gives way to ange...

The man who gives way to anger, or hatred, or any other passion, cannot work; he only breaks himself to pieces, and does nothing practical. It is the calm, forgiving, equable, well-balanced mind that does the greatest amount of work.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Tell the truth boldly, whethe...

Tell the truth boldly, whether it hurts or not. Never pander to weakness. If truth is too much for intelligent people and sweeps them away, let them go; the sooner the better.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

We cannot see outside what we...

We cannot see outside what we are not inside. The universe is to us what the huge engine is to the miniature engine; and indication of any error in the tiny engine leads us to imagine trouble in the huge one.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

To injure another creates bon...

To injure another creates bondage and hides the truth. Negative virtues are not enough; we have to conquer Maya, and then she will follow us. We only deserve things when they cease to bind us. When the bondage ceases, really and truly, all things come to us. Only those who want nothing are masters of nature.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Our supreme duty is to advanc...

Our supreme duty is to advance toward freedom - physical, mental, and spiritual - and help others to do so.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The past was great no doubt, ...

The past was great no doubt, but I sincerely believe that the future will be more glorious still.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Purity, patience and persever...

Purity, patience and perseverance overcome all obstacles. All great things must of necessity be slow.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The cheerful mind perseveres ...

The cheerful mind perseveres and the strong mind hews its way through a thousand difficulties.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Never mind these failures, th...

Never mind these failures, these little backslidings; hold the ideal a thousand times, and if you fail a thousand times, make the attempt once more.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Education is the manifestatio...

Education is the manifestation of perfection already existing in man.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

We have either to progress or...

We have either to progress or to degenerate. Our ancestors did great things in the past, but we have to grow into a fuller life and march beyond even their great achievements.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

He who has infinite patience ...

He who has infinite patience and infinite energy at his back, will alone succeed.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Spirituality as a science, as...

Spirituality as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Whatever you believe, that yo...

Whatever you believe, that you will be. If you believe yourselves to be sages, sages you will be tomorrow. There is nothing to obstruct you.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Man makes the mistake of sepa...

Man makes the mistake of separating himself from God and identifying himself with the body.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

This is the gist of all worsh...

This is the gist of all worship: to be pure and to do good to others. He who sees Shiva in the poor, in the weak, and in the diseased, really worships Shiva. And if he sees Shiva only in the image, his worship is but preliminary. He who has served and helped one poor man seeing Shiva in him, without thinking of his caste or creed or race or anything, with him Shiva is more pleased than with the man who sees Him only in temples

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

If the Absolute becomes limit...

If the Absolute becomes limited by the mind, It is no more Absolute; It has become finite.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

He who is alone is happy. Do ...

He who is alone is happy. Do good to all, like everyone, but do not love anyone. It is a bondage, and bondage brings only misery. Live alone in your mind - that is happiness. To have nobody to care for and never minding who cares for one is the way to be free.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

"Seek ye first the kingdom of...

"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all good things will be added unto you." Follow God and you shall have whatever you desire.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Learn to feel yourself in oth...

Learn to feel yourself in other bodies, to know that we are all one. Throw all other nonsense to the winds. Spit out your actions, good or bad, and never think of them again. What is done is done. Throw off superstition. Have no weakness even in the face of death. Be free.
