Why and how should every one of us serve?

 Render your hearts cool with delight; share the delight with others; adore God in this delectable form. When you go into the qualifications needed for seva, you will know that a pure heart - uncontaminated by conceit, greed, envy, hatred or competition is essential; also what is required is faith in God, as the spring of vitality, virtue, and justice. Seva is the worship you offer to the God in the heart of everyone. Do not ask another which country or state you belong to, or which caste or creed you profess. See your favourite form of God in that other person; as a matter of fact, that person is not 'other' at all. It is His image, as much as you are. You are not helping some 'one individual'; you are adoring Me, in that person. I am before you in that form; so, what room is there for the ego in you to raise its hood? Duty is God; Work is worship. Even the tiniest work is a flower placed at the Feet of God.
