Guest guest Posted April 1, 2001 Report Share Posted April 1, 2001 =========== Inspired Talks : Reproduced from the book "Inspired Talks" of Swami Vivekananda recorded by a disciple, Miss S E Waldo, during seven weeks (June to August 1895) at 'Thousand Island Park', USA. (also forming part of Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda; Volume VII). ================== Inspired Talks 35 Differentiation creates; homogeneity or sameness is God. Get beyond differentiation; then you conquer life and death and reach eternal sameness and are in God, are God. Get freedom, even at the cost of life. All lives belong to us as leaves to a book; but we are unchanged, the Witness, the Soul, upon whom the impression is made, as when the impression of a circle is made upon the eyes when a firebrand is rapidly whirled round and round. The soul is the unity of all personalities, and because it is at rest, eternal unchangeable, it is God, Atman. It is not life, but it is coined into life. It is not pleasure, but it is manufactured into pleasure. continued Inspired Talks 36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
