The power of meditation gets us everything. If you want to get power over nature, [you can have it through meditation]. It is through the power of meditation all scientific facts are discovered today. They study the subject and forget everything, their own identity and everything, and then the great fact comes like a flash.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

All the strength and succour ...

All the strength and succour you want is within yourselves. Therefore make your own future. "Let the dead past bury its dead." The infinite future is before you.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

If in this hell of a world on...

If in this hell of a world one can bring a little joy and peace even for a day into the heart of a single person, that much alone is true; this I have learnt after suffering all my life; all else is mere moonshine.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

By practice men can bring eve...

By practice men can bring even the heart under control, until it will just beat at will, slowly, or quickly, or almost stop. Nearly every part of the body can be brought under control.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Never say, ‘No’, never say, ‘...

Never say, ‘No’, never say, ‘I cannot’, for you are infinite. Even time and space are as nothing compared with your nature. You can do anything and everything, you are almighty

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Every successful man must hav...

Every successful man must have behind him somewhere tremendous integrity, tremendous sincerity, and that is the cause of his signal success in life. He may not have been perfectly unselfish; yet he was tending towards it. If he had been perfectly unselfish, his would have been as great a success as that of the Buddha or of the Christ. The degree of unselfishness marks the degree of success everywhere.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The difference between God an...

The difference between God and the devil is in nothing except in unselfishness and selfishness. The devil knows as much as God, is as powerful as God; only he has no holiness that makes him a devil. Apply the same idea to the modern world: excess of knowledge and power, without holiness, makes human beings devils.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

No one step back, that is the...

No one step back, that is the idea.... Fight it out, whatever comes. Let the stars move from the sphere! Let the whole world stand against us!.... What of it? Thus fight! You gain nothing by becoming cowards.... Taking a step backward, you do not avoid any misfortune.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Let a man go down as low as p...

Let a man go down as low as possible; there must come a time when out of sheer desperation he will take an upward curve and will learn to have faith in himself.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

You must keep a strict eye on your health; let everything else be subordinated to that.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Even the greatest fool can ac...

Even the greatest fool can accomplish a task if it be after his heart. But the intelligent man is he who can convert every work into one that suits his taste. No work is petty. Everything in this world is like a banyan seed, which, though appearing tiny as a mustard seed, has yet the gigantic banyan tree latent with it. He indeed is intelligent who notices this and succeeds in making all work truly great.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Always keep the mind cheerful...

Always keep the mind cheerful. Everyone will die once. Cowards suffer the pangs of death again and again, solely due to the fear in their own minds.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The best guide in life is strength. In religion, as in all other matters, discard everything that weakens you, have nothing to do with it.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Know that all sins and all ev...

Know that all sins and all evils can be summed up in that one word, weakness. It is weakness that is the motive power in all evil doing; it is weakness that makes men injure others; it is weakness that makes them manifest what they are not in reality. Let them know what they really are.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Learning and wisdom are super...

Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Onward, my brave boys - money...

Onward, my brave boys - money or no money - men or no men! Have you love? Have you God? Onward and forward to the breach, you are irresistible.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

You must all pay attention to...

You must all pay attention to your health first.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The mind is but the subtle part of the body. You must retain great strength in your mind and words.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

According to the Hindu way of...

According to the Hindu way of thinking, marriage is rather a duty than a privilege.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The more opposition there is,...

The more opposition there is, the better. Does a river acquire velocity unless there is resistance? The newer and better a thing is, the more opposition I will meet with at the outset. It is opposition which foretells success. Where there is no opposition there is no success either.
