It is fear that is the cause of our woes, and it is fearlessness that brings heaven in a moment "The earth is enjoyed by heroes" - this is the unfailing truth.
Swami VivekanandaThe power which works through the formative principles of every religion in every country is manifested in the forms of religion. . .
Swami VivekanandaThe Kingdom of Heaven is within us. God is within us. He is the Soul of our souls. See Him in your own soul. That is practical religion. That is freedom.
Swami VivekanandaConsciously or unconsciously, we are all striving for perfection. Every being must attain to it.
Swami VivekanandaWe are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in the future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
Swami Vivekananda
