Our best work is done, our greatest influence is exerted, when we are without thought of self.
Swami Vivekananda"Some would call you a saint, some a chandala; some a lunatic, others a demon. Go on then straight to thy work without heeding either" - thus saith one of our great Sannyasins, an old emperor of India, King Bhartrihari, who joined the order in old times.
Swami VivekanandaHe who knows even how to prepare a smoke properly, knows also how to meditate. And he who cannot cook well cannot be a perfect sannyasin. Unless cooking is performed with a pure mind and concentration, the food is not palatable.
Swami VivekanandaEveryone goes with the flow... but the one who goes against the flow becomes someone remarkable in life.
Swami Vivekananda
