Guest guest Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda Know then, that thou are He, and model your whole life accordingly, and he who knows this and models his life accordingly, will no more grovel in darkness. (II. 237) This truth about the soul is first to be heard. If you have heard it, think about it. Once you have done that, meditate upon it. No more vain arguments! Satisfy yourself once that you are the infinite spirit. If that is true, it must be nonsense that you are the body. You are the Self, and that must be realized. Spirit must see itself as spirit. Now, the spirit is seeing itself as the body. That must stop. The moment you begin to realize that, you are released. (IV. 245) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda.
