Guest guest Posted December 17, 1999 Report Share Posted December 17, 1999 Vivekananda Centre Taken from a talk by Swami Vivekananda on Practical Vedanta (London 1896) "Never tell yourself or others that you are weak. Do good if you can, but do not injure the world. You know in your inmost heart that many of your limited ideas, this humbling of yourself, and praying and weeping to imaginary Beings, are superstitions. Tell me one case where these prayers have been answered. All the answers that came were from your own hearts. You know there are no ghosts, but no sooner are you in the dark than you feel a little creepy sensation. Be masters of all these. What is there to be taught more in religion than the oneness of the universe and faith in one's self?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
