We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
Quotations
Swami Vivekananda
We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary.Thoughts live; they travel far.
If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean”, says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up”.
Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book?
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
