Swami Vivekananda                           

Six Sanskrit mottoes

(Reproduced from Swami Vivekananda in America: New Discoveries. These
together with the English translations, were transcribed by Swamiji in six
of his photographs.)

1. Ajarâmaravat prâjnah vidyâm
artham cha chintayet
Grihita iva kesheshu mrityunâ
dharmam âcharet

When in search of knowledge or prosperity think that thou would never have
death or disease, and when worshipping God think that death's hand is in
your hair.

2. Eka eve suhrid dharma
nidhanepyanuyâti yah

Virtue is the only friend which follows us even beyond the grave.

Everything else ends with death.

VIVEKANANDA.

3. One infinite pure and holy — beyond
thought beyond qualities I bow down
to thee

Swami Vivekananda.

4. Samatâ sarva-bhuteshu etanmuktasya lakshanam.

Equality in all beings this is the sign of the free

Vivekananda.

5. Thou art the only treasure in this world

Vivekananda.

6. Thou art the father the lord the
mother the husband and love

Swami Vivekananda.
