Swami Vivekananda Quotes

Swami Vivekananda:

We are responsible for what we are 

And whatever we wish ourselves to 

be 

we have the power to make 

  ourselves 

If what we are now 

has been the result of our own 

past actions 

it certainly follows that whatever 

we wish to be in future 

can be produced by our present 

actions 

so we have to know how to act.

Fill the brain with 

high thoughts and highest ideals

 place them day and night before 

you 

and out of that 

will come great work.

We reap what we sow 

We are the makers of our own fate 

None else has the blame 

None has the praise.

Fear is the death 

Fear is the sin

Fear is hell

Fear is unrighteousness

Fear is wrong life 

All the negative thoughts and ideas 

that are in the world 

have proceeded from this 

evil spirit of fear.

This is the first lesson to 

learn

be determined not to curse 

anything outside 

not to lay the blame upon anyone 

outside

but stand up

lay the blame on yourself 

You will find that is always true 

Get hold of yourself.
