Know it for certain that without steady devotion for the Guru and unflinching patience and perseverance, nothing is to be achieved. You must have strict morality.
Swami VivekanandaA brave, frank, clean-hearted, courageous and aspiring youth is the only foundation on which the future nation can be built.
Swami VivekanandaNeither idealists nor materialists are right; we must take both idea and expression.
Swami VivekanandaThe one eternal religion is applied to the opinions of various minds and various races. There never was my religion or yours, my national religion or your national religion; there never existed many religions, there is only the one. One infinite religion existed all through eternity and will ever exist, and this religion is expressing itself in various countries in various ways.
Swami Vivekananda
