Man as Atman is really free; as man he is bound, changed by every physical condition.
Swami VivekanandaA man must not only have faith but intellectual faith too. To make a man take up everything and believe it, would be to make him a lunatic.
Swami Vivekananda"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all good things will be added unto you." Follow God and you shall have whatever you desire.
Swami VivekanandaAll the forces that we see in nature, such as gravitation, attraction, and repulsion, or as thought, feeling, and nervous motion - all these various forces resolve into that Prana, and the vibration of the Prana ceases. In that state it remains until the beginning of the next cycle. Prana then begins to vibrate, and that vibration acts upon the Akasha, and all these forms are thrown out in regular succession.
Swami Vivekananda
