"नायमात्मा बलहीनेन लभ्यः।"

"This Self is not attained by the weak"

Swami Vivekanand often interpreted this quote to inspire his followers to cultivate strength and resilience. He believed that a weak mind cannot achieve great things, whether in the material or spiritual realm. For Vivekanand, strength was not only about physical power but also about mental fortitude, moral integrity, and spiritual depth.

This teaching encourages individuals to develop a strong will, clarity of purpose, and the ability to face life's adversities with courage. It underscores the importance of self-discipline, ethical behavior, and focused effort in achieving any significant goal, especially in the realm of spiritual practice.
