Do not figure out big plans at first, but, begin slowly, feel your ground and proceed up and up.
Swami VivekanandaMarriage is the truest goal for ninety-nine per cent of the human race, and they will live the happiest life as soon as they have learnt and are ready to abide by the eternal lesson - that we are bound to bear and forbear and that life to every one must be a compromise.
Swami VivekanandaThe natural state of this universe is attraction; and that is surely followed by an ultimate disunion.
Swami VivekanandaWherever there is evil and wherever there is ignorance and want of knowledge, I have found out by experience that all evil comes, as our scriptures say, relying upon differences, and that all good comes from faith in equality, in the underlying sameness and oneness of things. This is the great Vedantic ideal.
Swami VivekanandaSo long as you have faith in your Guru, nothing will be able to obstruct your way.
Swami VivekanandaJesus Christ was God - the Personal God become man. He has manifested Himself many times in different forms and these alone are what you can worship. God in His absolute nature is not to be worshipped. Worshipping such God would be nonsense. We have to worship Jesus Christ, the human manifestation, as God. You cannot worship anything higher than the manifestation of God. The sooner you give up the worship of God separate from Christ, the better for you.
Swami Vivekananda
