God is where there are no ‘fees’ being charged, where there is no botheration and where there is no scolding; that is where God is.

About This Quote

The leader of the so-called world’s largest religion, born in India, is a man by the name of Swami Vivekananda. He believed that God is wherever there are no “fees” being charged, where there is no botheration and where there is no scolding. He further said that God resides in those places where money can be neither taken away from those who have it nor given to those who need it. His belief was that God lives in those places where people do not have to be scolded for their sins, but instead praised for their good deeds.

This belief clearly shows that God is not just an object of worship or a place where we pray. It also shows that God is the infinite energy behind everything, the energy that makes us act towards something positive and constructive.
