These are the three stages which every religion has taken. First we see God in the far beyond, then we come nearer to him and give him omnipresence so that we live in him; and at last we recognize that we are he. - Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda - 'Help and not Fight' , Assimilation and not Destruction' , 'Harmony and Peace and not Dissension'.

“The World is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong."

“Stand up, be bold, be strong...All the strength and succor you want is within yourselves.”

Feel my children feel..feel for the poor, the downtrodden. Feel till the heart stops and the brain reels and you think you will go mad.

Swami Vivekananda Die you must, but have a great ideal to die for, and it is better to die with great ideal in life.

Take risks in your life. If you succeed, you can lead, if you fail, you can guide. ~ Swami Vivekananda

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live. Swami Vivekananda

Give me few men & women who are pure and selfless & I shall shake the world. - Swami Vivekananda
