Gems of Gospel of Holy Mother P. 239

Whenever any evil thought haunts you, tell your mind: 'Being her
child, can I stoop so low as to indulge in any such activity?' You
will find that you gain strength and peace of mind. P. 239 The Gospel
of The Holy Mother

The Gospel of Strength - Swami Vivekananda

Arise, awake! Awake from this hypnotism of weakness. None is really
weak; the soul is infinite, omnipotent and omniscient. Stand up,
assert yourself, procalim the God within you, do not deny Him! Too
much of inactivity, too much of weakness, too much of hypnotism has
been and is upon our race... De-hypnotise yourselves. The way to do
that is found in your own sacred books. Teach yourselves, teach
everyone his real nature, call upon the sleeping soul and see how it
awakens. Power will come, glory will come, goodness will come, purity
will come, and everything that is excellent will come when this
sleeping soul is roused to self-conscious activitiy.

The more I live, the more I become convinced everyday that every
human being is dinine. In no man or woman, however vile, does that
divinity die.

Studying the external alone, man begins to feel himself to be
nothing. These vast powers of nature, these tremendous changes
occurring - whole communities wiped off the face of the earth in a
twinkling of time, one volcanic eruption shattering to pieces whole
continents - perceiving and studying these things, man begins to feel
himself weak. Therefore it is not the study of external nature that
makes one strong. But there is the internal nature of man - a million
times more powerful than any volcanic eruption or any law of nature -
which conquers nature, triumphs over all its laws. And that alone
teaches man what he is.

Swami Vivekananda , Conversation with disciples.

Even the least work done for others awakens the power within; even
thinking the least good of others gradually instills into the heart
the strength of a lion. I love you all ever so much, but I wish you
all to die working for others--I should rather be glad to see you do
that!

Conversation with Priya Nath Sinha. Recorded in Bengali. Complete Works, 5: 382

The Gospel of Strength

Everybody is hypnotised already. The work of attaining freedom, of
realising one's real nature, consists in de-hypnotisation.

Come up, O lions, and shake off the delusion that you are sheep; you
are souls immortal, spirits free, blest and eternal; you are not
matter, you are not bodies; matter is your servant, not you the
servant of matter.

"Children of immortal bliss" - what a sweet, what a hopeful name!
Allow me to call you, brethren, by that sweet name - beings of
immortal bliss... You are the children of God, the sharers of immortal
bliss, holy and perfect beings. You divinities on earth - sinners! It
is sin to call a man so; it is a standing libel on human nature.

Love the Lord. Keep His ways. For He, as ye must always remember, hath
blessed thee personally. And that means for keeps!

Each soul . . . has a definite job to do. But ye alone may find and do that job!
