Saying of Swamishri

 

Great men do sevã without any personal desires, praise, status or comfort. Whatever sevã we get, we should do it. There should be no claims for a particular sevã. We should do it only to please our guru. Look at the discipline in the army! A captain’s order is an order! Nobody questions it. Once the ‘leader’ gives the command to do something, then you have to do it. In London during the Cultural Festival of India, on the day of the Suvarna Tula Mahotsav, the ‘leader’ gave ãgnã that all the volunteers should stay behind at the festival site. Some 200 - 300 youths stayed back at the site.

They didn’t think that they’d missed out! Wherever people were in sevã, whether arrangements for them had been made or not, whether they ate early or late, still none of them began shouting or complaining. If we have a problem we should explain it to the appropriate person calmly. And leave it at that. A sevak should have no personal needs or wants.
