the path to liberation from limitation.

Those who know,
settle for life ‘in Service’.

3
Service establishes right relationship,
with man, with nature and with God.

4
Service is the other name for love.
Service leads to love.
Love enables effortless flow of Service.

5
Live to Serve.
Serve to live in Glory!

6
Service is the purpose of all life.
Mineral, plant, animal, planet, devas - all serve.
Man needs to join to find harmony
within and without.

7
Service is the ordained law in creation.
It is inescapable.

8
Evasion from Service brings
inevitable penalties of sorrow and pain.

Willful evasion from Service is crooked.
Nature imprisons such ones.

10
Service brings salvation to self
and to the surroundings.

11
Emotional Service is erratic,
confusing and never lasting.
It results in waste of
time, energy and money.

12
Emotional Service lacks in
quality, clarity and order.
It helps little,
the Servers and the served.

13
Impulses of emotional ideas of Service
need to be incubated
for proper unfoldment
on the thought plane.

14
Impulsive and emotional Service
lands the Servers
in sicknesses of variety.

15
Emotional Service
suffers infantile mortality.
Intelligent Service
is superior to the emotional one.

16
Intelligent Service is superior
to the emotional one.
Intuitional Service is even superior
to the intelligent Service.

17
Emotional Service and intelligent Service
fl ow from personality.
Intuitional Service flows from the Soul.
The former is mortal, the latter immortal.

18
Personality is the aspirant.
Soul is the Teacher.
Prayer enables the link.

19
Ardent prayer of the personality
enables awakening of the Soul.
Awakened Soul renders Service, pure.

20
Ability is as important
as the ‘will to Serve’.
The will to do good
needs the ability as its back-bone.

Fear not to Serve –
be it emotional or intelligent.

22
As much you Serve,
so much the purifi cation happens
to enable the Soul
to shine through the personality.

23
Service is the fundamental right
(responsibility)
of every Soul.
All are eligible to Serve.

24
A Server needs to learn to Serve better.
Better skills enable better Service.
Varied skills enable variety of Service.

25
Many think of Service
but few engage in deed.
Excessive thinking prevents Service.

26
Let thought and action be balanced
for balanced manifestation of Service.

27
Let not action preceed thinking
while Serving
– it leads to mistakes and failure.
