Service is best built on the strong foundation of
Tath-Thwam-Asi. (That and This are the same) - there is no
other. There is only One. Kites fly high, but all are
lifted and kept high by the same air, the same wind. The kites
have no separate will. The pots of water in which the Sun is
reflected may be many, but the Sun is One. When another is poor,
you cannot be rich. When another is in distress, you cannot have
joy. The same current runs through and activates all. All
help you give is therefore help given to yourself, all service is to
the Self alone.
