Golden Words Of Swami Vivekananda

- When there is a conflict between the heart and the brain, let the heart be followed.
- A man of intellect can turn into a devil, but never a man of heart.
- There is no misery where there is no want.
- The secret of life is not enjoyment, but education through experience.
- Every new thought must create opposition.
- Every man who thinks ahead of his time is sure to be misunderstood.
- In this short life there is no time for the exchange of compliments.
- Do not wait to cross the river when the water has all run down.
- The greatest sin is fear.
- Better the scolding of the wise than the adulation of the fools.
- If you love God's creation more than God, you will be disillusioned.
- Everything can be sacrificed for truth, but truth can't be sacrificed for anything.
- God has become man, man will become god again.
- If it is impossible to attain perfection here and now, there is no
proof that we can attain perfection in any other life.
- Happiness presents itself before man, wearing the crown of sorrow on its head.
- If one is a slave to his passions and desires, one cannot feel the pure joy of real freedom.
- If you can't attain salvation in this life, what proof is there that you can attain it in the life
or lives to come?
- Strength is life, weakness is death.
- We want the education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, the
intellect is expanded, and by which one can stand on one's own feet.
- Let the heart be opened first, and all else will follow of itself.
- Activity is life and inactivity is death.
- Even the least work done for others awakens the power within.
- By the control of the subconscious mind you get control over the conscious.
- As we get further and further away from sense-pleasures, “knowledge for the sake of
knowledge” becomes the supreme pleasure of mind.
- It is through the many that we reach the one.
-The soul is the circle of which the circumference is nowhere, but the center is the body. God is
a circle whose circumference is nowhere, but whose center is everywhere.
- The body itself is the biggest disease.
- Do not give up anything! Things will give you up.
- Experience is the only source of knowledge.
- Do one thing at a time and while doing it put your whole soul into it to the exclusion of all else.
