SEVA- The Path of Purification

Ananda Yoga Center Description

"Life is meant for serving others. God's plan for human evolutions seva, or selfless service. 'Serve. Love. Give. Purify. Be Good. Do Good. Meditate. Realize.' That is the spiritual formula. One who practices selfless service feels for others and shares what he has with others. To grow on the spiritual path, you must serve humanity selflessly. Feel that the world is one big family and all are its members. Become a lover of humanity. Humanity is your God and serving humanity is your worship. One who is working for all is dear to God."

Swami Sivananda Saraswati
