Swami Vivekananda Creation Quotations

Since everything emanates from God, he is the embodied principle in every being. Each one of us is made from God. Tat twam asi - "You are That One" who is eternally blissful, that one principle manifesting itself as this variety of Creation.

Man is the highest being in creation, because he attains to freedom.

There is no happiness higher than what a man obtains by this attitude of non-offensiveness, to all creation.

Only when creation stops can we find the Absolute. The Absolute is in the soul, not in creation. So by stopping creation, we come to know the Absolute.
