Guest guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Pearls of Wisdom Evolution is in nature, not in the soul - evolution of nature, manifestation of the soul. (VI. 92) Every being that is in the universe has the potentiality of transcending the senses; even the little worm will one day transcend the senses and reach God. (I. 416) Every evolution pre-supposes an involution. (II. 75) Every evolution is preceded by an involution. (V. 255) Evolution does not come out of zero. (II. 228) The worm of today is the God of tomorrow (VIII. 250) Every evolution here is the evolution of something which existed previously. (V. 255) We are all born savages and gradually civilize ourselves. (I. 490) Before you were an animal, now you are a human, and will be a god or God Himself in future. (VII. 445) Instinct develops into reason, and reason into the transcendental consciousness. (I. 185) All the heaven that ever existed is now and here. (II. 372) Nothing can be evolved which is not already there. (II. 227) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
