Until we give up the world manufactured by the ego, never can we enter the kingdom of heaven. None ever did, none ever will.
Swami VivekanandaStand upon the Atman, then only can we truly love the world. Take a very, very high stand; knowing our universal nature, we must look with perfect calmness upon all the panorama of the world.
Swami VivekanandaThrough faithful practice, layer after layer of the mind opens before us, and each reveals new facts to us.
