~Swami Vivekananda



     “TO worship God even for the sake of salvation or any other reward is equally degenerate. Love knows no reward. Give your love unto to God, but do not ask anything in return even from Him through pray.”
~Swami Vivekananda

     “That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.”
~Swami Vivekananda
     “External nature is only internal nature writ large.”
~Swami Vivekananda

     “Do not stand on a high pedestal and take 5 cents in your hand and say, "here, my poor man", but be grateful that the poor man is there, so by making a gift to him you are able to help yourself. It is not the receiver that is blessed, but it is the giver. Be thankful that you are allowed to exercise your power of benevolence and mercy in the world, and thus become pure and perfect.”
~Swami Vivekananda
     “GOD is to be worshipped as the one beloved, dearer than everything in this and next life.”
~Swami Vivekananda

     “If money help a man to do good to others, it is of some value; but if not, it is simply a mass of evil, and the sooner it is got rid of, the better.”
~Swami Vivekananda
     “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.”
~Swami Vivekananda

     “It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thought make things beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own minds. Learn to see things in the proper light. First, believe in this world, that”
~Swami Vivekananda
     “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.”
~Swami Vivekananda
