One comes again and again—but then there is a thorn there—and at last one turns away the head. Yet Beauty is great, for all can see it, even the stupid can appreciate. But it should have qualities and wit behind, or it soon grows hideous. Without Beauty, Swami could not have worked—for he could not speak to all, but he has all— he is unique. And he has an added charm- He is child of child - as a fool. But scratch, and all the manliness shines out - in an instant.” - Swami Sadananda 

  • Feb. 6, 1899

    Swami Sadananda said to Sister Nivedita  that he hated the old gospel of the disciples’ love and was going to preach a new one: "My Guru’s love for me."

How can we love the Vyashti, the particular, without first loving the Samashti, the universal? God is the Samashti, the generalised and the abstract universal whole; and the universe that we see is the Vyashti, the particularised thing. To love the whole universe is possible only by way of lovin
