The Greatest Service

The greatest service one can render to his fellow beings is to spread an understanding of those fundamental truths with regard to life, which can lift them out of their problems and ignorance, and bring them to a condition of tranquility and happiness they had not experienced before.
- N Sri Ram.

We have to learn to interpret the truths of physical Nature in a manner which constitutes them a mirror for viewing the many aspected mystery of the Spirit.
-N Sri Ram.

Art thou abroad on this stormy night on the journey of love, my friend?
The sky groans like one in despari.

I have no sleep to-night.
Ever and again I open my door
And look out on the darkness, my friend!

I can see nothing before me,
I wonder where lies thy path!

By what dim shore of the ink-black river,
By what far edge of frowning forest,
Through what mazy depth of gloom art thou threading hty course
To come to me, my friend?
 Rabindranath Tagore (Geetanjai, Verse 23)

The mode of passion is born of unlimited desires of longings, O son of Kunti, and because of this the embodied living entity is bound to material fruitive actions.
- Bhagavat Git (Chapter 14, Verse 7)

The child ever dwells in the mysteries of ageless time, unobscured by the dust of history.
- Rabindranath Tagore.
