Religion has no business to formulate social laws and insist on the difference between beings, because its aim and end is to obliterate all such fictions and monstrosities.
Swami VivekanandaSomething cannot be made out of nothing. Nor can something be made to go back to nothing.
Swami VivekanandaThe Upanishads do not reveal the life of any teacher, but simply teach principles.
Swami VivekanandaThe glory of man is that he is a thinking being. It is the nature of man to think and therein he differs from animals
Swami VivekanandaI am proud to call myself a Hindu, I am proud that I am one of your unworthy servants. I am proud that I am a countryman of yours, you the descendants of the sages, you the descendants of the most glorious Rishis the world ever saw. Therefore have faith in yourselves, be proud of your ancestors, instead of being ashamed of them.
Swami Vivekananda
