The Buddhists or the Jains do not depend upon God; but the whole force of their religion is directed to the great central truth in every religion, to evolve a God out of man. They have not seen the Father, but they have seen the Son. And he that hath seen the Son hath seen the Father also.

— Swami Vivekananda

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.
