What is your advice to human beings?


Sri Sri: Take a different stance in life. Think how can I be useful to this planet...if you keep this question, things will change, that is what seva means - acting like HIM.. Se Ye Va like HIM that is how GOD works, he does everything for you without your knowing what all he has done! If you thank God, it is for your own benefit doing what God does, imitating God is seva. Service comes from the root word *seva*

Seva service


Question : As the saying goes, "charity begins at home". How can we do seva outside when we are needed at home?

Guruji(Sri Sri Ravi Shankar) : You are talking about your spouse? You need to balance. If you say I'll do all my home work before I do seva then that will never happen. Because so many things keep coming for home and it will not stop. You cannot neglect your home also. But at home it's called duty not seva. Outside it is seva.

Question : Whenever I feel like doing seva, I start finding excuses. Bless me that I can do some seva.

Guruji : Just keep doing seva, blessings are already there. Good things in life you should not delay. Just do it. Whenever you get a chance to do spiritual practice, seva, generosity, don't miss it. Those are the real catchy moments of your life.
