He told—
All knowledge is within us. All perfection is there already in the soul. But this perfection has been covered up by nature; layer after layer of nature is covering this purity of the soul. What have we to do? Really we do not develop our souls at all. What can develop the perfect? We simply take the evil off; and the soul manifests itself in its pristine purity, its natural, innate freedom.[Source]In this article we'll make a collection of Swami Vivekananda's quotes and thoughts on this theme— "All knowledge is within us".
All knowledge is within us

- All knowledge depends upon calmness of mind.[Source]
- All knowledge is in the soul.[Source]
- All knowledge is within [the] mind. Who saw knowledge in the stone, or astronomy in the star? It is all in the human being.[Source]

- All knowledge that we have, either of the external or internal world, is obtained through only one method — by the concentration of the mind.[Source]
- It is true that all knowledge is within ourselves, but this has to be called forth by another knowledge.[Source]
- Man is the epitome of all things and all knowledge is in him.[Source]
- The fountain of all knowledge is in every one of us, in the ant as in the highest angel. Real religion is one, but we quarrel with the forms, the symbols, the illustrations. The millennium exists already for those who find it; we have lost ourselves and then think the world is lost.[Source]
- We say Newton discovered gravitation. Was it sitting anywhere in a corner waiting for him? It was in his own mind; the time came and he found it out. All knowledge that the world has ever received comes from the mind; the infinite library of the universe is in your own mind. The external world is simply the suggestion, the occasion, which sets you to study your own mind, but the object of your study is always your own mind. The falling of an apple gave the suggestion to Newton, and he studied his own mind. He rearranged all the previous links of thought in his mind and discovered a new link among them, which we call the law of gravitation. It was not in the apple nor in anything in the centre of the earth. . . . All knowledge, therefore, secular or spiritual, is in the human mind. In many cases it is not discovered, but remains covered, and when the covering is being slowly taken off, we say, "We are learning," and the advance of knowledge is made by the advance of this process of uncovering.
