Swami Vivekananda Quotations | Page 3

The test of progress is the amount of renunciation that one has attained.

The progress of the world through all its evils making it fit for the ideals, slowly but surely.

The progress of the world means more enjoyment and more misery too.

The progress and civilisation of the human race simply mean controlling this nature.

The Indian mythology has a theory of cycles, that all progression is in the form of waves.

Take any path you like; follow any prophet you like; but have only that method which suits your own nature, so that you will be sure to progress.

Whatever you think, that you will be.

...never try to follow another's path for that is his way, not yours. When that path is found, you have nothing to do but fold your arms and the tide will carry you to freedom.

Those who work at a thing heart and soul not only achieve success in it but through their absorption in that they also realize the supreme truth-Brahman. Those who work at a thing with their whole heart receive help from God.

When you feel gloomy, think what has been done within the last year. How, rising from nothing.
