Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 :Shree Hari:Baisakh Krishna Dwadashi, Vikram Samvat 2063, Mangalvar 25th April, 2006, TuesdayRam RamGist of the pravachan given by Swami Ramsukhdasji on 8.8.1991 at 5 a.m:To attain God - always be engrossed in the welfare of others. Always be aware - I am dying every moment. Nothing of this world will go with me. Only humans can remember God and serve others. Always have an intent of the welfare of others. Be careful that you do not harm anyone even in your dreams. There is no doubt in your salvation. Remember - The world is not for you - you are for the world. Serve it to the best of your ability.Engrossed In Everyone's WelfareYou want to attain God - always be engrossed in the welfare of others. The person whose only intent is the welfare of others, does not have to think about his own welfare - it is natural. He will naturally attain God (Gita 12:4, 5:25). There is no doubt in his welfare. He has no intent to harm anyone - even his mistakes are excused. He has no selfish motive. Selfless service for the welfare of others is Karmayog. Another important fact is that we have assumed that we are living. What I am saying does not sound nice but it is a fact. We are not living - we are dying every moment. We are approaching our death every moment. We do not give importance to this fact. It is our misconception that we are living. We are dying every moment. Being aware of this fact will make us do what we should - what is important. If you are spending your life only after material pleasures and doing your worldly 'duties', in the end you will realise that you have done nothing. None of the material possessions will stay with you. You can serve all - you have the power, the capability, the right. Humans are specially qualified for two things - (i) remembering God and (ii) serving others. Start serving everyone. Start from your own house. Give pleasure to all. Do not want anything in return for yourself. If you do not remember God, your future is bleak and if you do not serve others - your present is bleak. Serve all - it is the art of living in the world. The world is not for you - you are for the world. This opportunity to serve is obtained only in this human life. Your intent is what is important. Have an intent to serve all - not to harm anyone. Even if a mistake is committed, it will be excused if this is your intent. You do not need material possessions to serve - share the sorrow and joy of others - you will serve them. This is a quality of saints. Be happy in their joy and sad in their sorrow. Your intent is only to give pleasure. Behave with all having this intent. You have come with no one and will also go alone. The benefit of this intent will be yours alone. Life will become peaceful and loving.
