You are doing service for you own sake. You are engaged in
service in order to become aware of the Divine Spirit in you, in
order that you may discard the al-lurements of your ego, in order
to know yourself and to get the answer to the question that
torments you, namely, "Who am I." You do not serve others, you
serve yourself; you do not serve the world, you serve your own
interest. [Sathya Sai Speaks. 1977.06.03]

Do not worry about the result. Help as much as you can, as
efficiently as you can, as silently as you can, and as lovingly as
you can; leave the rest to God, who gave you a chance to serve.

Many organisations run programs that provide useful and often
essential services to individuals in need, and many people
volunteer their time wholeheartedly in such service. This is good,
and Sai devotees, as individuals, are encouraged to participate in
such programs when they feel so inclined. In fact, Sai Baba has
said that service to the community is the highest service. [Sathya
Sai Speaks. 1968.01.11]

Do not believe that you can by means of selfless service reform
or reshape the world. You may or may not. That does not matter. The
real value of seva, its most visible result, is that it reforms
you, reshapes you. [Sathya Sai Speaks. 1966.03.29]
Slide 14
Only those whom I have called can serve Me (Baba)Nov 22, '09
9:54 AM for everyone These are My words to you, My Devotees. Each
of you has a unique and valuable part to play in this lifetime.
Only those whom I have called can serve Me My mission has now
reached that point in time when each one of you now has work to do.
I call upon you to radiate the Devotion within you so that its
unseen power will envelop all who come into your orbit. To
successfully perform your part always remain centered upon Me.
Allow yourselves to impart that purity of heart within you towards
all human beings and all living creatures and do not reach for the
fruits of your work. This part of my mission will be performed in
absolute silence. You are My instruments from whom My love will
pour. Be always aware that the moment you let your ego descend upon
you My work ceases.
Slide 15
When you have overcome your negative un mind-fullness you will
again become My Source. The multiplication of My Love will be felt
throughout the world. I have prepared you for this work over many
incarnations. I have drawn you to Me. I have made great steps in My
Mission over these past incarnations. My work is ceaseless and so
your work too, is without end. Know that I am within you and
without you. There is no difference. Rid yourselves of petty
matters forevermore. You are now Me and I am now Thee. There is no
difference. My Darshan will pour forth from Me to and through
you
