The Service of one’s Fellow Human Beings

Partial Excerpts from Kirpal’s Scriptures

Reading of books is a good thing. But their purpose is that one should mould his life so that the good about which one reads becomes a part of his life.

*****

If the disciple will only learn to love, all other things will follow of themselves.

*****

The road to perfection lies in walking rather than in talking and such a thing as judging others or the Master from one’s own view point or understanding gained so far, is hardly justified or proper for anyone. All are on the road to Perfection and it is not wise for anyone to find fault with others.

*****

The noblest service one can render in this world is to help people tread on their way to their True Eternal Home. No financial service would be too great for assisting such a noble cause. But it should always be loving and spontaneous. No compulsion, no taxation, no impositions.

*****

Do not worry if you stumble; there is always your Master (Shabd) by you to take your hand.

*****

Those who stray away just harm their own interests, and it is unfortunate that one may be led away by catchwords and propaganda. In the absence of a Live Force deterioration and stagnation sets in and frantic efforts are always made by the interested parties to try to carry on their work.

*****

It is unfortunate that interested people are plying the trade of man-hunting and lead the true seekers astray by their wild propaganda and nefarious activities to achieve their own end.

It is indeed a great service to make a dreary child find its way to the Father and contrarily it is the height of sin and stupidity to prevent one going the right way and to misguide him.

*****

Spirituality is the highest Goal in man’s life and it is also the most difficult. Only those who are really in search of the Truth should venture forth to tread on this Path.
