We should give to those who have lost their health and cannot work any longer, those who are handicapped, children who have been abandoned by their parents, those who are sick but don't have the resources for treatment, those who are old and have no family to help them. That is our dharma (duty), and we should not expect anything in return for our help." ... "Children, do you know what expectations Amma has of you? You should be like the sun, not like a firefly. Fireflies make light merely for their own needs. Don't be like that. Selflessness is all you should ever wish for. You should be the ones who raise their hands to help others, even at the moment of your death." ... "If it is someone's karma to suffer, consider it your karma to help him." .., "If you children love Mother, you should love and serve all living beings. Then only can it be said that you children love Mother" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
