MEN, MIND AND NOT BRUTES

India wants the sacrifice of atleast a thousand of her young men - men, mind, and not brutes.

IF MATTER IS POWERFUL, THOUGHT IS OMNIPOTENT

Whatever you do, think well on it. All your actions will be magnified, transformed, deified, by the very power of the thought. If matter is powerful, thought is omnipotent.

- Swami Vivekananda

WITHIN THERE IS THE LION - THE ETERNALLY PURE

Within there is the lion - the eternally pure, illumined and ever-free Atman; and directly one realizes Him through meditation and concentration, this world of Maya vanishes.

- Swami Vivekananda

 

LIBERTY OF THOUGHT AND ACTION IS THE ONLY CONDITION OF LIFE

" Liberty of thought and action is the only condition of life, of growth and well being. Where it does not exist, the man, the race, the nation must go down "

IT WILL RAISE YOU HIGHER

If you remember what I say, think of it, and digest it, it will be yours, it will raise you higher, and make you capable of understanding and living in truth.

......IT SHOULD BE DONE NO DOUBT WHEN SUCH BRAVE SOULS AS YOU STILL HOLD YOUR OWN.

It is a great work to bring this world into a spirit of sympathy with each other but it should be done no doubt when such brave souls as you still hold your own. Lord help you ever and ever my brother and may you live long to carry on the mighty work you and your society has undertaken.
