Love, Views, People

Swami Vivekananda (2015). “The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda”, p.4796, Manonmani Publishers

It is good to love God for hope of reward, but it is better to love God for love's sake; and the prayer goes: O Lord, I do not want wealth nor children nor learning. If it be Thy will, I shall go from birth to birth. But grant me this, that I may love thee without the hope of reward 'love' unselfishly for love's sake.

Swami Vivekananda

Love, Prayer, Children

All love is expansion, all selfishness is contraction. Love is therefore the only law of life. He who loves lives, he who is selfish is dying. Therefore love for love's sake, because it is the only law of life, just as you breathe to live.

Love, Inspiring, Selfish
