All
that I seek from you is that you love your fellowmen, share
their sufferings, and engage yourselves in serving them.
Rich people and those in power have plentiful servants. But
the distressed, the poverty-stricken, and those who suffer
have no one to serve them. Go to such people and be their
friends, their kith and kin, and their closest
well-wishers. Let them welcome you as such. If you pour
spirituality into the ears of those who are tortured by
hunger, it will not be assimilated. First satiate the
hunger. Give them God in the form of food and in the form
of clothes. Give God in the form of peace to those who are
afflicted with anxiety and in the form of medicine to those
who are suffering from ill health. Give God in a form that
will assuage fear, pain and sorrow. It is only when this is
done that spirituality can soak into their
hearts.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
