There are many powerful things Vivekananda said
Some of my favorites are
Happiness comes wearing the crown of sorrow
The following statement I have paraphrased
” it is a tremendous lesson to learn – not to desire ”
Vivekananda is a great Guru but people never understood him.
His Guru Ramkrishna impacted two major philosophical lines
- Paramhansa Yogananda – when he lost his mother had a great spiritual experience – the ability to see through everything from Ramkrishna disciple. Moreover Ramkrishna disciple let Yogananda talk and see his deceased mother
- Vivekananda stood by Aurobindo for a whole year when Aurobindo was in Jail. This happened 10 years after Vivekananda left his body
