Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book?
Quotations
Swami Vivekananda
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”.
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.
The moment I have realized God sitting in the temple of every human body, the moment I stand in reverence before every human being and see God in him - that moment I am free from bondage, everything that binds vanishes, and I am free.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If you cannot, fold your hands, bless your brothers, and let them go their own way.
