In every man and in every animal, however weak or wicked, great or small, resides the same omnipresent, omniscient soul. The difference is not in the soul, but in the manifestation. Between me and the smallest animal, the difference is only in manifestation, but as a principle he is the same as I am, he is my brother, he has the same soul as I have. This is the greatest principle that India has preached.
Swami VivekanandaIf you have knowledge and see a man weak, do not condemn him. Go to his level and help him if you can. He must grow.
Swami VivekanandaAccording to us, there are three things in the makeup of man. There is the body, there is the mind, and there is the soul.
Swami VivekanandaWe must be bright and cheerful. Long faces do not make religion. Religion should be the most joyful thing in the world, because it is the best.
Swami Vivekananda
