The great men think, and you and I [also] think. But there is a difference. We think and our bodies do not follow. Our actions do not harmonise with our thoughts. Our words have not the power of the words that become Vedas. … Whatever they think must be accomplished. If they say, "I do this," the body does it. Perfect obedience. This is the end. -- Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : The Gita I} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

The mind is in its own nature when it is calm. The moment you can calm it, that [very] moment you will know the truth. What is it that is whirling the mind? Imagination, creative activity. Stop creation and you know the truth. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : The Gita I} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

The Upanishads point out that the goal of man is neither misery nor happiness, but we have to be master of that out of which these are manufactured. We must be masters of the situation at its very root, as it were. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : The Gita I} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

We do a little work and break ourselves. Why? We become attached to that work. If we do not become attached, side by side with it we have infinite rest. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

…Unattached love will not hurt you. Do anything— marry, have children. … Do anything you like—nothing will hurt you. Do nothing with the idea of "mine". Duty for duty’s sake; work for work’s sake. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

Work! Be unattached! That is the whole secret. If you get attached, you become miserable. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #swamivivekananda #dailyquotes #dailymotivation

It is blasphemy to think that you can help anyone. First root out this idea of helping, and then go to worship. God’s children are your Master’s children. [And children are but different forms of the father]. You are His servant. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

Learn to see things in the proper light. First, believe in this world—that there is meaning behind everything. Everything in the world is good, is holy and beautiful. If you see something evil, think that you are not understanding it in the right light. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thoughts make things beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own minds. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #Spirituality

इसलिए युवाओं को सही मार्गदर्शन देने की आवश्यकता है। जैसा स्वामी विवेकानन्द कहते हैं मेरा विश्वास युवा पीढ़ी में है, आधुनिक पीढ़ी में है, उन्हीं में से मेरे कार्यकर्ता निकलेंगे। वे सिंहों की भाँति समस्त समस्याओं का समाधान कर डालेंगे।" #vivekanandakendra (Swami Vivekananda, Youth power, new generation, Gen Zs)

A man can attain to perfection, the highest goal, sitting on a throne, commanding armies, working out big plans for nations. In fact, Krishna’s great sermon was preached on the battlefield. - Swami Vivekananda {CWSV-1 : Lectures and Discourses : Krishna} #VivekanandaKendra #swamivivekananda #dailyquotes #dailymotivation
