dattaswami Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Importance of service to God You may say that service is impossible, – Hanuman and Gopikas are Exceptional and human beings – cannot sacrifice so much in action. This is totally wrong because – human beings sacrifice so much here For their children, impossible - must be impossible every-where. You are sacrificing your entire work – to serve your children always. In the end you are sacrificing – all your wealth to them only here. In such sacrifice, you are not – aspiring any fruit in return from them. It is the true love, practically proved – truth, none can deny this. Compare God and your child – in the practical love and estimate The percentage of reality – in your love to God without hypocrisy. You are not doing prayers with words – meditation and devotion with Mind, discussions with intelligence – for your child as you do for God. All your love to God is false, - only to get practical benefits from God Through words, feelings and discussions – like a prostitute exactly. Even if you serve God – through work and fruit of work, it is only Advance investment for more profit, – you are just a merchant. Do not be Veshya or Vaishaya before God, – at least be frank, Admit your defects and do not try – to fool God by false show. There are five instruments, – word, mind, intelligence, work and Fruit of work that can be sacrificed – to indicate your love here. The first three are theoretical, - the last two are practical. Practice is a proof for theory, - practice also must be without any Aspiration of fruit in return, - then only the practice is real. Theory must lead to practice – practice will lead to the fruit.
