Swami Vivekananda Says......

"Educate and raise the masses, and thus alone a nation is possible." - Swami Vivekananda
"Education, education, education alone! Travelling through many cities of Europe and observing in them the comforts and education of even the poor people, there was brought to my mind the state of our own poor people, and I used to shed tears. What made the difference? Education was the answer I got. Through education comes faith in one’s own Self, and through faith in one’s own Self the inherent Brahman is waking up in them." - Swami Vivekananda
I want each one of my children to be a hundred times greater than I could ever be. Everyone of you must be giant-must,that is my word.Obedience,readiness,and love for the cause-if you have these three,nothing can hold you back.- Swami Vivekananda.

What the world wants is character. The world is in need of those whose life is one burning love, selfless. That love will make every word tell like thunderbolt...Bold words and bolder deeds are what we want. Awake, awake, great ones! -Swami Vivekananda.
Be brave! Be strong! Be fearless! Once you have taken up the spiritual life, fight as long as there is any life in you. Even though you know you are going to be killed, fight till you “are killed.” Don’t die of fright. Die fighting. Don’t go down till you are knocked down. - Swami Vivekananda.

Believe, therefore, in yourselves, and if you want material wealth, work it out; it will come to you.

Mountain-high though the difficulties appear, terrible and gloomy thought all things seem, they are but Maya. Fear not and it is banished. Crush it and it vanishes. Stamp upon it, and it dies. Be not afraid. Think not how many times you fail. Never mind... Go forward: assert yourself again and again, and light must come. - Swami Vivekananda.
If you think that you are bound, you remain bound; you make your own bondage. If you know that you are free, you are free this moment. This is knowledge, knowledge of freedom. Freedom is the goal of all nature. - Swami Vivekananda.

"Learn obedience first. Among these Western nations, which such a high spirit of independence, the spirit of obedience is equally strong. We are all of us self-important, which never produces any work. Great enterprise, boundless courage, tremendous energy, and, above all, perfect obedience - these are the only traits that lead to individual and national regeneration. These traits are altogether lacking in us. - Swami Vivekananda (VI.349)
"I consider that the great national sin is the neglect of the masses, and that is one of the causes of our downfall. No amount of politics would be of any avail until the masses in India are once more well educated, well fed, and well cared for. They pay for our education, they build our temples, but in return they get kicks. They are practically our slaves. If we want to regenerate India, we must work for them." - Swami Vivekananda (V.222-23)
"The difference between God and the devil is in nothing except in unselfishness and selfishness. The devil knows as much as God, is as powerful as God; only he has no holiness - that makes him a devil. Apply the same idea to the modern world: excess of knowledge and power, without holiness, makes human beings devils." - Swami Vivekananda (V.425)
"One of the greatest lessons I have learnt in my life is to pay as much attention to the means of work as to its end. ...I have been always learning great lessons from that all the secret of success is there: to pay as much attention to the means as to the end." - Swami Vivekananda (II.1)
"After so much austerity, I have understood this as the real truth - God is present in every jiva; there is no other God besides that. 'Who serves jiva, serves God indeed.'"- - Swami Vivekananda (V.246)
"Europe, the centre of the manifestation of material energy, will crumble into dust within fifty years if she is not mindful to change her position, to shift her ground and make spirituality the basis of her life. And what will save Europe is the religion of the Upanishads. (Uttered by Swamiji in 1897) (III.159)
"It is already becoming clear that a chapter which had a western beginning will have to have an Indian ending, If it is not to end in the Self-destruction of the human race. At this supremely dangerous moment in human history, the only way of salvation for mankind is the Indian way." - Dr. Arnold Joseph Toynbee, British Historian!
"Like the gentle dew that falls unseen and unheard, and yet brings into blossom the fairest of roses, has been the contribution of India to the thought of the world. Silent, unperceived, yet omnipotent in its effect, it has revolutionized the thought of the world, yet nobody knows when it did so." - Swami Vivekananda
