“Ye are the children of God, the sharers of immortal bliss, holy and perfect beings. Ye divinities on earth - sinners! It is a sin to call man so; it is a standing libel on human nature. Come up, lions! and shake off the delusion that you are sheep; you are souls immortal, spirits free, blest and eternal.”

— Swami Vivekananda

More quotes by Swami Vivekananda

To devote your life to the good of all and to the happiness of all is religion. Whatever you do for your own sake is not religion.

All differences in this world are of degree, and not of kind, because oneness is the secret of everything.

Remember, the centre of our national life is not politics or economy but Dharma.

A perfect life is a contradiction in terms.

Swâmi Vivekânanda on Râja Yoga (1899)

The powers of the mind are like the rays of the sun when they are concentrated they illumine.
