~ Swami Vivekananda Quotes

We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we

have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our

own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can

be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.


Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to

think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin ? to say that you are weak, or others

are weak.


You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make youspiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

The goal of mankind is knowledge ... Now this knowledge is inherent in man. No

knowledge comes from outside: it is all inside. What we say a man 'knows',should, in strict psychological language, be what he 'discovers' or 'unveils'; what

man 'learns' is really what he discovers by taking the cover off his own soul,

which is a mine of infinite knowledge.


We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think.

Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.


Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every

living being.


You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.


The first sign of your becoming religious is that you are becoming cheerful.


The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.

creature, and that you have no power and you cannot do this and that.


The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be

pur if ie d, and Go d wi ll be in th em .


Al l the po wers in the un iv erse ar e al ready ours . It is we who ha ve put our han dsbefore our eyes and cry that it is dark.


GOD of truth, be Thou alone my guide?

You know, I may have to be born again, you see, I have fallen in love with

mankind.

Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest

Truth.


If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a

very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.


My nature is love Him. And therefore I love. I do not pray for any -thing. I do not

ask for anything. Let Him place me wherever He likes. I must love Him for love?s

sake. I can not trade in love.


To devote your life to the good of all and to the happiness of all is religion.

Whatever you do for your own sake is not religion.


Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.

The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is

something behind the will which is free.


As dif feren t st rea ms havin g di ffere nt so urce s all min gl e th ei r wat er s in th e se a,

Infinite power of the spirit, brought to bear upon matter evolves material

development, made to act upon thought evolves intellectuality, and made to act

upon itself makes of man a GOd. First, let us be Gods, and then help other to be

GOds. "Be and Make." Let this be our motto.


Religion is the manifestation of the Divinity already in man.


It is good to love God for hope of reward, but it is better to love God for love?s

sake; and the prayer goes: O Lord, I do not want wealth nor children nor

learning. If it be Thy will, I shall go from birth to birth. But grant me this, th at Imay love thee without the hope of reward - ?love? unselfishly for love?s sake.

If money help a man to do good to others, it is of some value; but if not, it is

simply a mass of evil, and the sooner it is got rid of, the better.

Who will give the world light? Sacrifice in the past has been the Law, it will be,

alas, for ages to come. The earth's bravest and best will have to sacrifice

themselves for the good of many, for the welfare of all.

Truth, purity, and unselfishness - whenever these are present, there is no power

Al l love is expan si on , al l se lfi shnes s is contrac ti on . Love is th erefo re th e only law

sake, because it is law of life, just as you breathe to live.

An yo ne wh o recogn iz ed th is

Would not ask Love for anything else:

It can unite Opposites

The madness of love makes bitter what was sweet,

It makes the stranger a kinsman,

An d it ma kes th e sm all est th e mo st pr ou d.

I hesitate indeed to grant pure love.

Whoever wins pure love surpasses all;

He is adored by men;

He triumphs over the three worlds..

The success of love is in the loving

- it is not in the result of loving.

Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person,

but whether it turns out that way or not

does not determine the value

of what we have done

~

It is not how much we do,

but how much love we put in the doing.

It is not how much w e give,

but how much love we put in the giving.

we must learn how to forgive.

~

We can do no great things;

only small things with great love.

There is a terrible hunger for love.

We all experience that in our lives - the pain, the loneliness.

We must have the courage to recognize it.

The poor you may have right in your own family.

Find them.

Love them.
