Question: Serving God is Serving Mankind? | ||||
My humble obeisances, | ||||
Answer: Watering the Root Nourishes the Tree | ||||
The concept, "Madhava seva is manava seva," which means, "Serving God is serving mankind," is a universally valid principle, which has always been true and will always be true. God is the root of the entire tree of creation, and everything else is the leaves and branches of that tree. Just as when we water the root of a tree all the leaves and branches are nourished, when we give our love to Krishna or God, that love is automatically distributed to all living beings throughout the entire creation. This is the perfection of service. |
