Effective Quotation of Swami Vivekananda
Effective Quotation of
Swami Vivekananda
1. If the mind is intensely eager, everything can be
accomplished—mountains can be crumbled into atoms.
2. Take up
one idea. Make that one idea your life – think of it, dream of it, live on
idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that
idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.
3. Come out
into the universe of Light. Everything in the universe is yours, stretch out
your arms and embrace it with love. If you every felt you wanted to do that,
you have felt God.
4. All
knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind; the infinite
library of the universe is in our own mind.
5. Stand
up, be bold, be strong. Take the whole responsibility on your own shoulders,
and know that you are the creator of your own destiny. All the strength and
succor you want is within yourself. Therefore make your own future. 6. There is
no help for you outside of yourself; you are the creator of the universe. Like
the silkworm you have built a cocoon around yourself…. Burst your own cocoon
and come out aw the beautiful butterfly, as the free soul. Then alone you will
see Truth.
7. It is our
own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thought make
things beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own
minds. Learn to see things in the proper light. First, believe in this world,
that there is meaning behind everything. Everything in the world is good, is
holy and beautiful. If you see something evil, think that you do not understand
it in the right light. Throw the burden on yourselves!
8. Hold to
the idea, “I am not the mind, I see that I am thinking, I am watching my mind act,”
and each day the identification of yourself with thoughts and feelings will
grow less, until at last you can entirely separate yourself from the mind and
actually know it to be apart from yourself.
9. All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is
therefore the only law of life. He who loves lives, he who is selfish is dying.
Therefore love for love’s sake, because it is law of life, just as you breathe
to live.
10.
Our duty is to encourage every one in his struggle to live up to
his own highest idea, and strive at the same time to make the ideal as near as
possible to the Truth.
11.
Even the greatest fool can accomplish a task if it were after his
or her heart. But the intelligent ones are those who can convert every work
into one that suits their taste.
12.
Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If
you cannot, fold your hands, bless your brothers and let them go their own way.
13.
Each work has to pass through these stages—ridicule, opposition,
and then acceptance. Those who think ahead of their time are sure to be
misunderstood.
14. If you
think that you are bound, you remain bound; you make your own bondage. If you
know that you are free, you are free this moment. This is knowledge, knowledge
of freedom. Freedom is the goal of all nature.
15.
As long as we believe ourselves to be even the least different
from God, fear remains with us; but when we know ourselves to be the One, fear
goes; of what can we be afraid?
16. Your Atman
is the support of the universe—whose support do you stand in need of? Wait with
patience and love and strength. If helpers are not ready now, they will come in
time. Why should we be in a hurry? The real working force of all great work is
in its almost unperceived beginnings.
17.
Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter
merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power. It is not in the
brain but in the heart that the Atman, possessed of knowledge, power, and
activity, has its seat.
18.
Understanding human nature is the highest knowledge, and only by
knowing it can we know God? It is also a fact that the knowledge of God is the
highest knowledge, and only by knowing God can we understand human nature
19.
Purity, patience, and perseverance are the three essentials to
success and, above all, love.
20.
If you want to have life, you have to die every moment for it.
Life and death are only different expressions of the same thing looked at from
different standpoints; they are the falling and the rising of the same wave,
and the two form one whole.
21. Each soul
is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divinity within by
controlling nature, external and internal. Do this either by work, or worship
or psychic control or philosophy – by one or more or all of these and be free.

about thiruvannamalai
Chennai, Dec8 (Truth Dive): TN CM
astrolger and Kerala-based astrologer Parappanangadi Unnikrishna
Panicker’s conducting of deviaprasanam(deity wishes) at the Arulmigu
Renugambal Amman temple in Padavedu village in Thiruvannamalai district
since Monday has raised doubts from devotees.
The
locals said Panicker had held many a deivaprasnam in the temple before
he was caught in a controversy after holding a similar ritual at the
Ayyappa temple in Sabarimala in 2006. Former Chairman of the temple
trust, Venugopal, was also not aware of the ritual, which is expected to
go on until Friday.
Panicker rode to
fame on the list of his celebrity clientele which includes the then Sri
Lankan President Chandrika Kumaratunga, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J
Jayalalithaa, and ex Karnataka Chief Minister and Union Minister S M
Krishna, not to mention a large number of business magnates and film
personalities across the country.
Panicker
had predicted an electoral comeback for Jayalalithaa in 2002 when the
AIADMK leader was reeling under major electoral reverses, and court
cases. He had predicted that Jayalalithaa could regain the Chief
Ministership at a time when the court had barred her from contesting the
polls.
The thumping victory her
party scored in the Assembly elections and the favorable court verdicts
had raised his stocks high in Tamil Nadu.The then Sri Lankan Government
appointed Panicker honorary secretary of the Temple Construction Board,
functioning under the Sri Lankan Ministry of Culture.
Panicker
was summoned by the then Sri Lankan President Chandrika Kumaratunga to
perform a “special pooja” to find a solution to the raging ethnic
problem in the island country.
In
another case, the family of the Kannada matinee idol, Rajkumar, had
solicited his advice following the kidnapping of the actor by forest
brigand Veerappan. Jayalalithaa had visited the Tirur Alathiyoor Hanuman
temple, the Guruvayur Sreekrishna temple and the Rajarajeswara temple
at Taliparamba on Panicker’s advise.The Tamil Nadu Government had
offered Rs 1 crore for the renovation works of the Alathiyur temple in
Kerala.
