Guest guest Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda The Vedas say the whole world is a mixture of independence and dependence, of freedom and slavery, but through it all shines the soul independent, immortal, pure, perfect, holy. For if it is independent, it cannot perish, as death is but a change, and depends upon conditions; if independent, it must be perfect, for imperfection is again but a condition, and therefore dependent. And this immortal and perfect soul must be the same in the highest God as well as in the humblest man, the difference between them being only in the degree in which this soul manifests itself. (I. 330) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
