Nothing is gained except by sacrifice.... Do not degrade it to the level of the brutes.... Make yourselves decent men! ... Be chaste and pure! ... There is no other way. Did Christ find any other way?

Jesus, Sacrifice, Men

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.473, Manonmani Publishers

Jesus Christ was willing to admit every good man to the family of God. It is not the man who believes a certain something, but the man who does the will of the Father in heaven, who is right. On this basis-being right and doing right-the whole world can unite.

Swami Vivekananda

Jesus, Father, Believe

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.2257, Manonmani Publishers

I have come to deal with principles. I have only to preach that God comes again and again, and that He came in India as Krishna, Rama, and Buddha, and that He will come again. It can almost be demonstrated that after each 500 years the world sinks, and a tremendous spiritual wave comes, and on the top of the wave is a Christ.

Spiritual, Jesus, Years

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.3645, Manonmani Publishers

The Christians believe that Jesus Christ died to save man. With you it is belief in a doctrine, and this belief constitutes your salvation. With us doctrine has nothing whatever to do with salvation. Each one may believe in whatever doctrine he likes; or in no doctrine.

Swami Vivekananda

Christian, Jesus, Believe

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.2590, Manonmani Publishers

Let the churches preach doctrines, theories, philosophies to their hearts' content, but when it comes to worship, the real practical part of religion, it should be as Jesus says, "When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret".

Jesus, Philosophy, Real

Christ, being man, had to see impurity and denounced it; but God, infinitely higher, does not see iniquity and cannot be angry.

Swami Vivekananda

Jesus, Men, Doe

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.3125, Manonmani Publishers

Everything is the living God, the living Christ; see it as such.

Swami Vivekananda

Jesus, Christ

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.3201, Manonmani Publishers

Renounce and give up. What did Christ say? "He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it." Again and again did he preach renunciation as the only way to perfection. There comes a time when the mind awakes from this long and dreary dream-the child gives up its play and wants to go back to its mother. Renunciation is not asceticism. Are all beggars Christ? Poverty is not a synonym for holiness; often the reverse.

Swami Vivekananda

Mother, Dream, Jesus

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “Jnana Yoga: The Yoga of Knowledge”, p.30, editionNEXT.com

The Trinitarian Christ is elevated above us; the Unitarian Christ is merely a moral man; neither can help us. The Christ who is the Incarnation of God, who has not forgotten His divinity, that Christ can help us, in Him there is no imperfection.

Swami Vivekananda

Jesus, Men, Imperfection

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.3095, Manonmani Publishers

Christ said, "Resist not evil", and we do not understand it until we discover that it is not only moral but actually the best policy, for anger is loss of energy to the man who displays it. You should not allow your minds to come into those brain-combinations of anger and hatred.

Swami Vivekananda

Jesus, Loss, Men
