Swami Vivekananda Said...

More strikingly here are some of his quote which has power to transform the lives: * “Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, that is way great spiritual giants are produced.” * “We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.” * “Never think there is anything impossible for the soul. It is the greatest heresy to think so. If there is sin, this is the only sin ? to say that you are weak, or others are weak.” * “You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.” * “The first sign of your becoming religious is that you are becoming...

Swami Vivekananda: A warrior Monk

"He was a soul of puissance if ever there was one, a very lion among men, but the definitive work he has left behind is quite incommensurate with our impression of his creative might and energy.

Sri Madbhagwad Geeta in Nutshell

Sri Madbhagwad Geeta is considered as one of the most profound scripture available on this planet which is always revered as true source of spiritual knowledge. Literal meaning of Sri Madbhagwad Geeta is 'Song of God'. Its a conversation between Arjuna and Lord Sri Krishna where Lord Sri Krishna explain the detailed mysteries of this Universe as well as Brahman and help Arjuna to come out of the deluded state of mind and be free. In this post I am puting the overall view of this wealth of knowledge. It has 700 verses which has been distributed in 18 chapters. I remember, in September 2006 I went to Mumbai to attend satsang with Guruji where HE said if you want to attend satsang, next time read Geeta and then come. So while going back to Gujarat (where I used to work) I baught Bhagwad Geeta and read it (Reading itself is an experience as I felt much more free and happy during those days).
