Often we do work enjoying it fully and sometimes we do work, for the sake of it. Does it really matter?
Only when the sacredness of the body and the sacredness of the mind come together, can divine strength be generated.
With the help of the body, we should undertake sacred tasks. With the help of the mind, we should develop divine thoughts.
This body is given to us and is intended for helping others. With the help of the body, we should be able to do good service and help the community.
Whatever work we undertake, it should be done with a feeling that it is being done for the pleasure of the Divine.
Our body is like the plastic cover on a wire. Our mind is like the copper wire inside. Along with the body, when the mind also joins, can divine strength flow into us.
- Summer Showers in Brindavan, 1977, Ch 10.
All that you are, you owe to society and you have to show your gratitude to society by rendering service.
