When the moon shines in the sky, you can see it directly. You do not require the aid of a torch, or a lamp, or any other artificial light. The reason is it is possible for us to look at the moon by the light of the moon. In the same manner, if you want to be nearer and dearer to God or understand God, who is an embodiment of love, it will be possible to do so only by means of love which is His very nature. God who is the embodiment of love, is not confined to one place or country. He is present everywhere, in every nook and corner of the world. Hence everyone, including youth must love all and regard loving all beings as loving God, as God is present in every living being. Since God is selfless, you must also practice serving selflessly.
