QUOTES FROM SWAMI VIVEKANANDA OWN BIOGRAPHY
- Through concentration of mind everything can be accomplished-even mountains can be crushed to atoms.
- They alone are associates of Avatara who have renounced all self for the sake of others, who, giving up all sense-enjoyments with repugnance, spend their lives for the good of the world, for the welfare of Jivas.
- It is easier to attain liberation through cherishing a hostile spirit.
- If you really want the good of others, the whole universe may stand against you and cannot hurt you. It must crumble before your power of the Lord himself in you if you were sincere and really unselfish.
- The means should be loved and cared for as if it were the end itself.
- There must not be slightest divergence between one's words and actions.
- There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
- The mind very easily attains calmness when one practices meditation with anything on which one's mind is most apt to settle down. This is the reason why we have in this country (India) so much worship of the images of Gods and Goddesses.
- Doing good to others silently like the spring is my religion.
