Guest guest Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda Buddha is the only prophet who said, "I do not care to know your various theories about God. What is the use of discussing all subtle doctrines about the soul? Do good and be good. And this will take you to freedom and to whatever truth there is". (I. 117) Buddha was the first who dared to say, "Believe not because some old manuscripts are produced, believe not because it is your national belief, because you have been made to believe it from your childhood; but reason it all out, and after you have analyzed it, then, if you find that it will do good to one and all, believe it, live up to it, and help others to live up to it". (I. 117) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
