6 Swami Vivekananda Quotes on Practice

Swami Vivekananda quotes on practice

1. 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. This is the whole of religion. Doctrines, or dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or forms, are but secondary details.

10. We must overcome difficulty by constant practice. We must learn that nothing can happen to us unless we make ourselves susceptible to it.

111. Let us worship the spirit in spirit, standing on spirit. Let the foundation be spirit, the middle spirit, the culmination spirit.

122. Pray all the time, read all the scriptures in the world, and worship all the gods there are ...but unless you realize the Truth, there is no freedom.

178. We must be bright and cheerful. Long faces do not make religion. Religion should be the most joyful thing in the world, because it is the best.

192. Work and worship are necessary to take away the veil, to lift off the bondage and illusion.
