Ay! says the Vedanta, it is not the fault of God that this partiality exists, that this competition exists. Who makes it? We ourselves. There is a cloud shedding its rain on all fields alike. But it is only the field that is well cultivated, which gets the advantage of the shower; another field, which has not been tilled or taken care of cannot get that advantage. It is not the fault of the cloud.
Swami VivekanandaThe Gita is like a bouquet composed of the beautiful flowers of spiritual truths collected from the Upanishads.
Swami VivekanandaWhere God is, there is no other. Where world is, there is no God. These two will never unite. Like light and darkness.
Swami VivekanandaThe essence of Vedanta is that there is but one Being and that every soul is that Being in full, not a part of that Being.
Swami VivekanandaYou nourish your minds by reading books. There is no good in doing that unless you hold it also as a sacrifice to the whole world. For the whole world is one; you are rated a very insignificant part of it, and therefore it is right for you that you should serve your millions of brothers rather than aggrandise this little self
