You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Good and evil have an equal share in moulding character, and in some instances misery is a greater teacher than happiness. In studying the great characters the world has produced, I dare say, in the vast majority of cases, it would be found that it was misery that taught more than happiness, it was poverty that taught more than wealth, it was blows that brought out their inner fire more than praise.

The land of healing lies within, radiant with the happiness that is blindly sought in a thousand outer directions.

No life will be a failure; there is no such thing as failure in the universe. A hundred times man will hurt himself, a thousand times he will tumble, but in the end he will realise that he is God.

[yourdreamsaredreamingyouback]

It is the greatest manifestation of power to be calm. It is easy to be active. Let the reins go and the horses will run away with you. Anyone can do that; but he who can stop the plunging horses is the strong man. Which requires the greater strength, letting go or restraining? the calm man is not the man who is dull. The calm man is the one who has control over the minds waves. Activity is the manifestation of inferior strength; calmness, of superior

The heart must become a burial ground. Pride, selfishness, and desire all broken into dust, Then and then alone will the Mother dance there!

[To Know Oneself]

It is not the study of external nature that makes one strong. But there is the internal nature of man-a million times more powerful than any volcanic eruption or any law of nature which conquers nature, triumphs over all its laws. And that alone teaches man what he is.

(Swami Vivekananda)

Who is an example of a selfless person?

Narendra (Swami Vivekananda) had just lost his father and was in lot of debt. Once Ramakrishna Paramahansa was talking with Narendra and other few disciples. During the conversation Ramakrishna said to a devotee who was rich "Narendra has lost his father, his family is in trouble, it would be great if his friends help him in this time of need."

After that rich fellow left the place, Naren who was angry said to his Guru Ramakrishna "Why did you have to tell him all that?", he was angry for his pride and his family's esteem were hurt.

Seeing Naren hurt, Ramakrishna with tears in his eyes said "Naren, don't you know I'm ready to do anything for you? I will go from house to house begging for you."

Naren knew his master truly meant it, touched by the love of the saint he wept and felt ashamed of his behavior.

A Hymn to Shiva

May my luminous love fasten firm to Him, to Shiva,

In whom arise visions of glories immeasurable!

May my luminous love cling to Him who is utterly pure, like the sky,

Who is Lord of all, having no lord over Himself!

May my luminous devotion be attached to Him

By whom all delusion is destroyed,

In whom Lordship is forever existent!

May it be attached to Him who, manifesting surpassing Love,

is named “the Great God.”

The firm embrace of Him—Love Itself—reveals within the heart

The infinity of being, the falseness of the worlds.

I salute Mind which has its support in Shiva,

But has lost its pristine perfection and assumed misshapen forms;

I salute Mind in which all the impresses of the past are blowing

like a furious tempest,

Stirring up energies violently, like waters lashed into furious waves;

In which flows ceaselessly the dual current of the sense of “I” and “thou.”

I worship Shiva in whom ideas of cause and effect,

Thoughts and impresses and countless varied forms become the Real One.

I worship Him in whom—when the wind of change is calmed—

There is neither within nor without.

I worship Him who is the perfect stillness of the Mind.

He whose thunderous laughter is the flood of Knowledge,

He from whom all darkness is dispersed, who manifests as white radiance,

who is beautiful as the white lotus;

He who is indivisible, who is sought in meditation;

He who is realized in the heart of men of self-control—

May He, that Lordly Swan of my mind, protect me!

May He protect me, who am bowing before Him!

Him, who destroys sin and removes the dark stain of our age;

Whose benign eyes watch over all who have surrendered to Him;

Who joyously sacrifices Himself for the good of others,

Whose throat is blue from drinking the poison intended for others—

Him, lustrous as the white water lily—

Him I salute!
