Look not back. No, not even if you see the dearest and nearest cry. Look not back, but forward. We cannot stop. If we stop we die. We have either to go forward or to go backward. We have either to progress or to degenerate.
Swami VivekanandaThe Gita is like a bouquet composed of the beautiful flowers of spiritual truths collected from the Upanishads.
Swami VivekanandaFill the brain with high thoughts, highest ideals, place them day and night before you, and out of that will come great work.
Swami VivekanandaSuperstitions are all materialism, because they are all based on the consciousness of body, body, body. No spirit there. Spirit has no superstitions - it is beyond the vain desires of the body.
