AS YOU GO ON YOUR WAY, SERVING OTHERS, YOU WILL ADVANCE ACCORDINGLY IN THE PATH OF KNOWLEDGE.


Myself: How little we are, Swamiji!

Swamiji: True! You have well said! Think of this infinite universe with its millions and millions of solar systems, and think with what an infinite, incomprehensible power they are impelled, running as if to touch the Feet of the One Unknown — and how little we are! Where then is room here to allow ourselves to indulge in vileness and mean-mindedness? What should we gain here by fostering mutual enmity and party-spirit? Take my advice: Set yourselves wholly to the service of others, when you come from your colleges. Believe me, far greater happiness would then be yours than if you had had a whole treasury full of money and other valuables at your command. As you go on your way, serving others, you will advance accordingly in the path of knowledge.

- Swami Vivekananda
THINK OF DEATH ALWAYS AND NEW LIFE WILL COME WITHIN —WORK FOR OTHERS — GOD THE LAST REFUGE
