Swami VivekanandaThrough practice comes Yoga, through Yoga comes knowledge, through knowledge love, and through love bliss.
Swami VivekanandaBe not afraid of anything. You will do marvellous work. It is fear that is the great cause of misery in the world. It is fear that is the greatest of all superstitions. It is fear that is the cause of all our woes, and it is fearlessness that brings heaven even in a moment. Therefore, "arise, awake and stop not until the goal is reached.
Swami Vivekananda
