SYNOPSIS
Secret of Service (Seva) (35:50)
The soul is an eternal servant of God, who is synonymous with bliss. Therefore
every individual soul is an eternal servant of happiness. True happiness is found
in God, who is the one whom we desire to serve eternally. Because God and Guru are
one, initially we will serve the Guru and ultimately we will realise our eternal
servitude with the Guru's grace. Specific guidelines for how to practice or render
seva (service) to ensure we qualify to receive the Guru's grace.
Surrender to God(29:30)
Explanation of the kirtan line, Hari Guru sharanagati, Govinda Radhey.
Our two aims are freedom from maya and the attainment of bliss.
When bliss is attained, we are freed from suffering automatically.
Our feeling of devotion, the extent of our knowledge and our detachment
from the world are proportional to our surrender to God.
