Our own selfishness makes us the most arrant cowards; our own selfishness is the great cause of fear and cowardice.
Swami VivekanandaIndividuality in universality is the plan of creation. Each cell has its part in bringing about consciousness. Man is individual and at the same time universal. It is while realising our individual nature that we realise even our national and universal nature. Each is an infinite circle whose centre is everywhere and circumference nowhere. By practice one can feel universal Selfhood which is the essence of Hinduism. He who sees in every being his own Self is a Pandita (sage).
Swami VivekanandaSo long as there is desire or want, it is a sure sign that there is imperfection. A perfect, free being cannot have any desire.
Swami Vivekananda
