THE SUPPORTIVE TEACHINGS
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA
FEATURED
The Whole Universe is You ; The Universe is your Body ; You are The Universe both Formed and UnFormed . You are The Soul of The Universe and Its Body
The Yogi proposes no less a task than to master the whole Universe , to control the whole of nature . One wants to arrive at the point where what we call " nature's laws " will have no influence over one , where one will be able to get beyond them all . One will be master of the whole of nature , internal and external .
There are much higher states of existence beyond reasoning . It is really beyond the intellect that the first state of religious life is to be found . When you step beyond thought and intellect and all reasoning , you have made the first step towards GOD
There is but One Infinite Being in the Universe , and that Being appears as you and as I ; but this appearance of divisions is after all a delusion . . . The Whole Universe is You ; The Universe is your Body ; You are The Universe both Formed and UnFormed
No compromise ! No whitewashing ! No covering of corpses beneath flowers ! Throw away such texts as , " Tathapi Lokacharah โ Yet the customs of the people have to be followed " .
The idea of the Advaitists is to generalise the whole universe into one โ that something which is really the whole of this universe . And they claim that this whole universe is one , that it is one Being manifesting itself in all these various forms .
