Helping the deserving is through analysis
Lessons for serving humanity



You can do the help or service to any extent provided you conclude the deserving receiver. Do not be hasty in doing service. Of course, the basic needy, who are extremely poor, need not be analyzed. Since they are in need of basic needs only, you need not apply the analysis to their case. There is a saying: “service to humanity is service to God”. The meaning of this statement is that you must train yourself in the service of humanity so that you will succeed in the case of God, whenever the opportunity comes. In the case of poor people, there is no chance of expecting anything in return. Therefore, that is the best area to develop the pure devotion by serving without aspiring anything in return.

You serve the humanity. You will also develop love to the human form, which will be useful in serving the contemporary human incarnation of God without any repulsion to co-human form. All the social service is only training for the service of God. Without the ultimate service to God, mere social service gives you only heaven from which you have to return after sometime as said in the Gita (Kshene Punye…).
