Guest guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda The feeling of independence which possesses us all, shows there is something in us besides mind and body. The soul that reigns within is independent, and creates the desire for freedom. (IV. 190) Each soul is a star, and all stars are set in that infinite azure, that eternal sky, the Lord. There is the root, the reality, the real individuality of each and all. religion began with the search after some of these stars that had passed beyond our horizon, and ended in finding them all in God, and ourselves in the same place. (V. 69) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
