How Oldold Antique Fire Extinguishers



He who does not have to eat at home,
have to eat outside.
Thus, one who is not peace in itself,
always have to do something outside of himself. (...)

There are two kinds of social service:
is a result of self-satisfaction and a
dissatisfaction.
Thus, there are two kinds of people:
ones that are always restless and
not see what is in themselves,
walk from one side to another on the pretext of serving the world.
and others, being satisfied,
serve naturally to everyone. Swami Tilak




If you want your service to be useful to others, without prejudice to yourself, try to guide you on your way these three precepts:

1) Let your greatest joy is to find the path service.
2) being recognized as an agent of a force more powerful than yours, that you enter gives you the power to serve.
3) What you see in others the same divine nature in yourself. Try

the strength of your affection for another does not disturb your balance or yours.

Your service must be fortified and do not weaken.

not feel envious of the ability to help another has. Should rather rejoice that such power exists, to help those who yours is not enough.

When you go to the aid of someone, try to identify with the ideal of one who has been empowered to serve.

This will make your ideal and at the same time your help will be most effective.

Seek not the fruit of your service, and do not be sad if those who have helped not utter a word of thanks. Keep in mind that you are here to serve the soul, not the body and although the lips remain silent as long as you will receive the gratitude of the soul.

One of the rarest official duty is to refrain from judging a person before hearing it.

The best way to serve is to lighten the load, not suppress it.

better help others if you are imbued with his own ideal.

There are many ways to serve as people in the world who help.

Those who believe not in a position to serve often forget the existence of inferior beings of creation as plants and animals.

Many do not have time to provide a service they manage in one way or another to have the opportunity to receive it.

If a person rejects the way you try to serve it, try to find another way because your desire is to serve and not impose your way of doing.

No issues offer help to those who need it, you know it or not, their distress makes your brother, and your shyness would be a form of pride that would deprive it of comfort in their grief.

The best way to persuade someone to follow good advice is to practice self what is advised.

If you ever believe you better than others by the fact that you're learning to serve and because I think they do not follow the same path, from that moment to serve unceasingly. The real service is to involve others in our inner life, not in front of them, either directly or indirectly as an example to follow.

A person may ask you help in various ways but your best help will give you what you need and not what you could want.

Do not say: "today I helped a lot." Instead, think if you could not have done more and what little they've done to actually reduce much misery and suffering in the world.

Give someone the help they actually corresponds to another is not true service.

Of the many who are ready to serve, most use different media, less convenient.

not neglect those who should help, for those who want to serve.

When trying to help someone, do not fret for their weaknesses, these are what allow you to the privilege of serving, otherwise it would not need help.

not afraid to proclaim the source of your own to serve as inspiration to make known the source of your happiness is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give the world.

If where you are currently unable to find opportunities to serve, there'd be less able where you want to be.
