God is very merciful to those whom He sees struggling heart and soul for spiritual realization. But remain idle, without any struggle, and you will see that His grace will never come.
Swami Vivekananda...Really, there is no greater sin than cowardice; cowards are never saved - that is sure. I can stand everything else but not that.
Swami VivekanandaNothing can be produced without a cause, and the effect is but the cause reproduced.
Swami VivekanandaHow has all the knowledge in the world been gained but by the concentration of the powers of the mind? The world is ready to give up its secrets if we only know how to knock, how to give it the necessary blow. The strength and force of the blow come through concentration. There is no limit to the power of the human mind. The more concentrated it is, the more power is brought to bear on one point; that is the secret.
Swami Vivekananda
