Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda The child rebels against law as soon as it is born. It's first utterance is a cry, a protest against the bondage in which it finds itself. This longing for freedom produces the idea of a Being who is absolutely free. The concept of God is a fundamental element in the human constitution. In the Vedanta, the Sat-Chit-Ananda (Existence-Knowledge-Bliss) is the highest concept of God possible to the mind. It is the essence of knowledge and is by its nature the essence of bliss. (I. 334) From Whom all beings are projected, in Whom all live, and unto Whom they all return; that is God. (I. 416) The whole of Nature is worship of God. Wherever there is life, there is this search for freedom and that freedom is the same as God. (I. 337) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda.
