personal service -- quotes from SP's letters

[Guest guest]

I want to see that all my disciples are engaged 24 hours in the service of

the Lord. If one is engaged full time in the service of the Lord, under my

direction, that is my personal service.

 

Although my personal service is also important, the preaching work comes

first. I want everyone of our men to become first class preachers. So you

want to preach that is best. Don't be worried, but go on with your preaching

and you will be happy.

 

Personal service to the spiritual master means to follow his instructions.

My request is the same for everyone: that they follow strictly the

regulative principles and chant at least sixteen rounds daily. And as much

time as they are able should be devoted for preaching according to our

books.
