Swami Vivekananda Quotes on Soul

9 quotes

  1. Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin - to say that you are weak, or others are weak.

  2. However we may receive blows, and however knocked about we may be, the Soul is there and is never injured. We are that Infinite.

  3. The human soul has sojourned in lower and higher forms, migrating from one to another according to the samskaras or impressions, but it is only in the highest form as a human being that it attains to freedom.

  4. The Self when it appears behind the universe is called God. The same Self when it appears behind this little universe-the body-is the soul.

  5. The Soul is not composed of any materials. It is unity indivisible. Therefore it must be indestructible.

  6. To believe blindly is to degenerate the human soul. Be an atheist if you want, but do not believe in anything unquestioningly.

  7. We are ever free if we would only believe it, only have faith enough. You are the soul, free and eternal, ever free, ever blessed. Have faith enough and you will be free in a minute.

  8. We believe that every being is divine, is God. Every soul is a sun covered over with clouds of ignorance; the difference between soul and soul is owing to the difference in density of these layers of clouds.

  9. Worship of society and popular opinion is idolatry. The soul has no sex, no country, no place, no time.
