Just as the law of gravitation existed before its discovery and would exist if all humanity forgets it, so it is with the laws that govern the spiritual world. The moral, ethical and spiritual relations between soul and soul and between individual spirits and the Father of all spirits were there before their discovery and would remain even if we forget them.
Swami VivekanandaThe less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do.
Swami VivekanandaThere is really no difference between matter, mind and Spirit. They are only different phases of experiencing the One.
Swami VivekanandaWhatever you believe, that you will be. If you believe yourselves to be sages, sages you will be tomorrow. There is nothing to obstruct you.
Swami VivekanandaLet us calmly and in a manly fashion go to work, instead of dissipating our energy in unnecessary frettings and fumings. I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything he really deserves. The past was great no doubt, but I sincerely believe that the future will be more glorious still.
Swami Vivekananda
