HOW TO SERVE

Swami Sivananda

Slay selfish motives. It is through the Light provided by the Self-effulgent Lord within you that you are able to work. Feel this every moment of your life. You will save yourself from bondage to the wheel of Kar ma and achieve success in life as also God-realisation. Unless an aspirant serves with Atma-bhava and purifies his heart, he lives in vain. His meditation will not bear fruit. Act as a trustee, not as an owner or proprietor. You will not be bound, as there will be no 'mine ness'. Realise that life is meant for service and not for self-seeking. Contd…


The prayer may be expressed in language, or it can be merely a feeling that arises from within. You may close your eyes, say nothing, and yet you are in the mode of prayer. "God please save me. " You may not utter it in these words, but your feelings are the real prayer; and every prayer rightly directed and really rising from the recesses of your heart shall be answered. There is no doubt about it. Be sure about it.
