No study has taken so much of human energy, whether in times past or present, as the study of the soul, of God, and of human destiny.
Swami VivekanandaBusiness is business, that is, you must do everything promptly; delay and shuffling won't do.
Swami VivekanandaThe greatest force is derived from the power of thought. The finer the element, the more powerful it is. The silent power of thought influences people even at a distance, because mind is one as well as many. The universe is a cobweb; minds are spiders.
Swami VivekanandaEach soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divinity by controlling nature, external and internal. Do this either by work, or worship, or psychic control, or philosophy - by one, or more, or all of these - and be free. This is the whole of religion. Doctrines, or dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or forms, are but secondary details.
