Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.
Swami VivekanandaAsk nothing; want nothing in return. Give what you have to give; it will come back to you, but do not think of that now.
Swami VivekanandaIn the English character, the "give and take" policy, the business principle of the trader, is principally inherent.
Swami VivekanandaIf the suns come down, and the moons crumble into dust, and systems after systems are hurled into annihilation, what is that to you? Stand as a rock; you are indestructible. You are the Self, the God of the universe. Say - "I am Existence Absolute, Bliss Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, I am He," and like a lion breaking its cage, break your chain and be free forever. What frightens you, what holds you down? Only ignorance and delusion; nothing else can bind you. You are the Pure One, the Ever-blessed.
Swami Vivekananda
