service is the expression of love we need to understand we have to develop
our loving relationship with God loving relationship is different from worldly
loving relationship you see there's a difference in the world also the world
love is used but the distinction is between lust and love what exists in the
world is lust in the name of love what we need to cultivate is love which is as
different from lust as light is different from darkness community some
hope even Krishna sucked at Purdue primitive Robin a thief come here
premiere booty on tour come on Tonto dream nirmaan huskar chaitanya
charitamrita is is like darkness and light we have to reach that stage of
inner growth where we truly love God and that love means what not to take take
take but to give give give that is the one lesson we have never learned in
endless lifetimes we will God to get from him and love is the reverse of this
it is about giving to him how many times have we really given of ourselves you
know once
one dollar note and $100 note were getting scrapped they were going back to
the Reserve Bank whatever it is called in USA so the hundred dollar note said
what a wonderful life it has been have been to so many places exquisite the one
dollar note said what places have you been - I have had a very dreary life one
hundred dollar note said I am into Las Vegas and I went to Atlantic City and I
went to the SeaWorld and I went to the casinos the $1 note said what places are
you talking about $100 note said where did you go I went to the Ganesh man
there are team Tolly then I went to the Vishnu man there are teeth Holly then I
went to the Raman there are teeth Holly then I went to Swami ji is our teeth
Holly the hundred dollar note said what place Mundell are you talking about I've
never seen a month
have we ever learned to give in many ways you see the Indian culture is
studded with so many wonderful things but in one thing it falls way behind the
rest of the world when it comes to giving one beggar used to go around then
he met a businessman and the businessman asked him why do you beg the beggar said
sir I tried for a job I did not get it so I have started begging if you give me
a job I will stop making the businessman said I will do far more than that I'll
make you my business he said really the beggar said yes what
is the deal the businessman said look I have got a rice field and I've got a
empty shop in the market I will supply you the rice you only have to stand at
the counter and sell it really we will share the profits at the end who so how
much will I keep will I keep 5% and give you 95 or will I keep 10% and give you
90 the businessman said no you keep 90 percent of the profits and just give me
10% the beggar said really his words filled him now he actually
meant it he started giving and the beggar became a shopkeeper he started
selling things at the end of the month he got the profit now he thought I have
done the work why should I give it to my business partnership I should keep it
all to myself the businessman came and said give me my 10% the beggar said what
10 percent I have worked hard it is all mine in the same way God gives us the
body he gives us the brain he gives us the talents he gives us the skills he
says go do it but what do you earn you take out 10% and you give it to me in
return think about it
how much did we earn in our life have we even given back one percent in the
service of God we have to go a long way to understand what it means to love
than that and develop the service attitude towards God everything will
fall in place we will develop the service attitude in our relationships as
well we will understand relationships are not about my happiness they are
about giving about helping others
