Guest guest Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 The quickest and easiest way by which one can realise the basic absurdity of attachment is the path of Seva. Pour out love, whether it is returned or not, whether it results in success or not. Let love be ever translated into Seva, into beneficial acts, sweet words of consolation, comfort and courage, and thoughts of sympathy and compassion. Worship of God in temples and shrines has its place in sanctifying time and sublimating the instincts and impulses. Inquiry into reality has its use in clearing the fog of doubt. But, activity in the shape of Seva charged with love fulfils the aims of all paths to Godhead. "Sarvathaah paani paadham, sarvathokshi shiro mukham," says the Geetha. "All hands are His, all feet, all eyes and all faces and mouths are His"; He works through all hands, He walks through all feet, He sees through each eye. He eats and speaks through every mouth. Everything is He. Every step is His, every look, every speech, every act is His. That is the lesson that Seva instils. - From Swami's Divine Discourse on 11th February'1971 Love Cricket?
