External nature is only internal nature writ large.

Our very nature is Sat Chit Ananda (Truth Conscious Bliss). Look within, all power, knowledge, strength, happiness is within.

Truth, purity and unselfishness — whatever these are present, there is no power below or above the sun to crush the possessor thereof...

"To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. ‘I will drink the ocean'

Be obedient & eternally faithful to the cause of truth, humanity, your country & you'll move the world  - Swami Vivekananda

"Deep as the ocean, broad as the infinite skies, that is the sort of heart we want."

If the mind is pleased with praise, it will be displeased with blame....

Impurity is a mere superimposition under which your real nature has become hidden. But the real you is already perfect, already strong.

All pleasures of the senses or even of the mind are evanescent. Within ourselves is the one true unrelated pleasure dependent upon nothing. It is perfectly free, it is bliss.
