PSYCHOLOGICAL IDEA OF ASSOCIATION


TODAY’S VIVEKANANDA QUOTE

All our ideas of law are due to association. A series of phenomena becomes associated with things in our mind in a sort of invariable order, so that whatever we perceive at any time is immediately referred to other facts in the mind. Any one idea or, according to our psychology, any one wave that is produced in the mind, must always give rise to many similar waves. This is the psychological idea of association, and causation is only an aspect of this grand pervasive principle of association.

Class on Karma Yoga. New York, January 10, 1896. Complete Works, 1. 94. Swamiji is referring to the laws of nature.
