The Society: It is a collection of people who live
and work, love and create, toil and struggle together. Being in this society
you have to look after the welfare of the society.
If you find anybody begging on the street, you should call him, talk to
him softly and advise him not to beg like this. Help him to carry out a
dignified life. Remember Jesus served two fish to a hungry person who asked
"How is it possible to eat fish every day"? Then Jesus purchased a net and presented it to the man,
and advised him "With this net, carry out your living". Our students
should do like that. |

We
should help others and enable them to earn their own living. All the members of
this SOCIETY are your brothers and sisters. You should have that kind of
affection and universal love.
Every educated person should engage himself or herself in selfless service
to society with humility and pure heart. All academic distinction or even
observance of spiritual practice is of no use if there is no love in the heart. This
is the deep significance of human life.

Help rendered, however small, if it comes from the heart
within is as good as the offer of life itself. Look about for chances to
relieve, or rescue. Train yourselves that you may render help quickly and well.
Service is the highest form of commitment, the most satisfying and the most
pleasurable.
Serve people with no thought of high or low: No service is
high, no service is low each act of service is equal in the eyes of the Lord.
It is the readiness, the joy, the efficiency, the skill with which you rush to
do that matters

You should make every effort to avoid harming others in any
circumstance. You are only hurting yourself when you hurt others.

SERVICE: brings out all that
is great in man. It broadens the heart and widens ones vision. It fills one
with joy it promotes unity. It proclaims the truth of the spirit. It drives out
all evil qualities in men. It must be regarded as a great spiritual discipline.
You are born to serve, not to dominate. Everyone in the world is a servant and
not a master.
Service to man will help your divinity to bloom, for it
will gladden your heart and make you feel that life has been worthwhile.
Service to man is service to God for he is in every man and every being.
Remember, you are not doing
service for others. You are doing it always for yourselves, to the God in you,
the God who is equally present in others.
Learn to give, not to take, learn to serve, not to
rule
