Swami's Wonderful Discourse on Seva and Sacrifice - 10th December'1964

[Guest guest]

" The greatest Way for anyone to be happy and make others happy is by Doing Seva. By Doing selfless Seva, performing Seva all the time to our Parents, and to those in need, everyone can attain a state where our mind becomes absorbed in God. So they do not depend on anything else for anything . You have to perform actions with the spirit of detachment so you can attain to the highest perfection. When we think only about ourselves always and when forget about everything else, we become attached to things, and as a result of that attachment all kinds of problems come into our life. This is not the way for anyone to find happiness in this world. The way everyone can find happiness is through detachment meaning that you should Serve everyone without expecting

anything in return, It is difficult but Swami always tells you that nothing comes easily for anyone especially when you are doing Good things to everyone. Whenever there is attachment there is suffering — attachment is the cause of suffering. And where there is detachment there is happiness and peace for everyone, When we are self-centred — thinking only about ourselves — not one person will like us. No one in this world likes selfish people.

 

 

Spirituality is not just talking and listening; it must express itself in our actions and everything that you do always. It is only through example that we and anyone can teach, not by just talking. Swami always says that everyone who follows Swami’s Teachings and Words should be examples to follow, showing others the way they always. Everyone Must work for our family, for our society, and only by engaging in these types of sacred and Good activities all the time, our mind will become pure. When our mind becomes pure,

 

To sacrifice for others is the greatest thing that one can do. Swami always says that selfless service is like a Big tree — help it grow and water it, when the tree grows everyone will enjoy it because everyone has seen the tree from the beginning, they have cared for it, and when it blossoms they feel happy. That is real Dharma. The basis of dharma is Yajna — to sacrifice. Always Give what Little you have to others In Need, Everyone will understand the Wonderful Aspect and meaning of Giving away only when you Do it, Talking is very easy for everyone, Doing it is difficult, Swami wants everyone of you to put Whatever you hear from Me in actions, Put everything Good you hear in Practise and only then will you make others happy and Me Happy. That is what Swami wants nothing else.
