Service without ideal of self…trains you to transcend all the artificial distinctions imposed by history and geography, and to realise that the human community is one and indivisible.
If you wish to be free, know you are the Self, the witness of all these, the heart of awareness. Set your body aside; sit in your own awareness. You will be at once happy, forever still, forever free.

Selfless service alone gives the needed strength and courage to awaken the real you sleeping in your heart.
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves.
