There is no discipline equal to service for smothering the ego and filling the heart with genuine joy. To condemn service as demeaning or inferior is to forgo these benefits. A wave of service, if it were to sweep over all lands, catching everyone in its enthusiasm, would be able to wipe out the mounds of hatred, malice and greed that infest the world. Attune your hearts so that they will vibrate in sympathy with the woes of your fellowmen. Fill the world with love. Love will warn you against advising another to do something that you, yourself, do not want to do. Your conscience will advise you that you are living a lie.

-Divine Discourse, 10th Sep 1969.
