Do not desire, for what you desire you get, and with it comes terrible bondage. It is nothing but bringing "noses on us," as in the case of the man who had three boons to ask. We never get freedom until we are self-contained. "Self is the Saviour of self, none else."
Swami VivekanandaAs the cause is, so the effect will be Cause is never different from effect, the effect is but the cause reproduced in another form.
Swami VivekanandaThe sum total of all the cells in an organism is one person; so each soul is like one cell and the sum of them is God, and beyond that is the Absolute.
Swami Vivekananda
