SWAMI VIVEKANANDA -
Do not desire, for what you desire you get, and with it comes terrible bondage. It is nothing but bringing “noses on us,” as in the case of the man who had three boons to ask. We never get freedom until we are self-contained. “Self is the Saviour of self, none else.”
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA -

SWAMI VIVEKANANDA -
