Age New Spirituality Inspirational Quotes ( Part 3 )
By: Vish Writer / Swami Vivekananda

The ideal of faith in ourselves is of the greatest help to us. If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished.

Throughout the history of mankind, if any motive power has been more potent than another in the lives of all great men and women, it is that of faith in themselves. Born with the consciousness that they wee to be great, they become great.

Let a man go down as low as possible; there must come a time, when out of sheer desperation he will take an upward curve and will learn to have faith in himself. But it is better for us that we should know it from the very first. Why,should we have all these bitter experience in order to gain faith ourselves?

We can see that all the difference between man and man is owing to the existence and non-existence of faith in himself. Faith in ourselves will do everything. I have experienced it in my own life, and am still doing so; and as I grow older, that faith is becoming stronger and stronger.

Do you know how much energy, how many powers, how many forces, are still lurking behind that frame of yours? What scientist has known all that is in man? Millions of years have passed since man first came here, and yet but one infinitesimal part of his powers has been manifested. Therefore, you must not say that you are weak. How do you know what possibilities lie behind that degradation on the surface? You know but little of that which is within you. For behind you is the ocean of infinite power and blessedness.

If matter is powerful,thoughts is omnipotent.Bring this thought to bear upon your life,fill yourselves with the thoughts of your almightiness, your majesty and your glory. Would to God we had not been surrounded from our birth by all these superstitious influences and paralyzing ideas of our weakness and vileness.
