Who makes us ignorant? We ours...

Who makes us ignorant? We ourselves. We put our hands over our eyes and weep that it is dark.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

I want each one of my children...

I want each one of my children to be a hundred times greater than I could ever be. Everyone of you must be a giant- must, that is my word. Obedience, readiness, and love for the cause- if you have these three, nothing can hold you back.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Be strong , my young friends; ...

Be strong , my young friends; that is my advice to you. You will be nearer to Heaven through football than through the study of the Gita. These are bold words; but I have to say them, for I love you. I know where the shoe pinches.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Take courage and work on. Pati...

Take courage and work on. Patience and steady work- this is the only way.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

As soon as you know the voice ...

As soon as you know the voice and understand what it is, the whole scene changes. The same world which was the ghastly battlefield of maya is now changed into something good and beautiful.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

This, I have seen in life - th...

This, I have seen in life - those who are overcautious about themselves fall into dangers at every step. Those who are afraid of losing honor and respect, get only disgrace; and those who are always afraid of loss, always lose.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

As body, mind, or soul, you ar...

As body, mind, or soul, you are a dream; you really are Being, Consciousness, Bliss (satchidananda). You are the God of this universe.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

This life is a hard fact; work...

This life is a hard fact; work your way through it boldly, though it may be adamantine; no matter, the soul is stronger.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Fear is death, fear is sin, fe...

Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, and fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The remedy for weakness is not...

The remedy for weakness is not brooding over weakness, but thinking of strength.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Neither numbers nor powers nor...

Neither numbers nor powers nor wealth nor learning nor eloquence nor anything else will prevail, but purity, living the life, in one word, anubhuti, realisation. Let there be a dozen such lion-souls in each country, lions who have broken their own bonds, who have touched the Infinite, whose whole soul is gone to Brahman, who care neither for wealth nor power nor fame, and these will be enough to shake the world.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Our first duty is not to hate ...

Our first duty is not to hate ourselves, because to advance we must have faith in ourselves first and then in God. Those who have no faith in themselves can never have faith in God.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Perfect sincerity, holiness, g...

Perfect sincerity, holiness, gigantic intellect, and all-conquering will. Let only a handful of men work with these, and the whole world will be revolutionized.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

When we let loose our feelings...

When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Nature, body, mind go to death...

Nature, body, mind go to death, not we. We neither go nor come. The man Vivekananda is in nature, is born and dies. But the Self we see as Vivekananda is never born and never dies. It is the eternal and unchangeable Reality.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Be a hero. Always say, 'I have...

Be a hero. Always say, 'I have no fear.' Tell this to everyone - 'Have no fear.'

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

The varieties of religious bel...

The varieties of religious belief are an advantage, since all faiths are good, so far as they encourage us to lead a religious life. The more sects there are, the more opportunities there are for making a successful appeal to the divine instinct in all of us.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

It is our own mental attitude ...

It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thought make things beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own minds. Learn to see things in the proper light.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

Be free; hope for nothing from...

Be free; hope for nothing from anyone. I am sure if you look back upon your lives you will find that you were always vainly trying to get help from others which never came.

Vivekananda 1692 quotes

However we may receive blows, ...

However we may receive blows, and however knocked about we may be, the Soul is there and is never injured. We are that Infinite.
