Famous Quotes By Swami Vivekananda


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.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Faith


Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Succes


All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Awareness


The will is not free - it is a phenomenon bound by cause and effect - but there is something behind the will which is free.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Religion


Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as possible to the Truth.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Metaphysics


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

Swami Vivekananda  |  Teaching


All differences in this world are of degree, and not of kind, because oneness is the secret of everything.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Wisdom


When an idea exclusively occupies the mind, it is transformed into an actual physical or mental state.

Swami Vivekananda  |  Metaphysics
