Make time to search your heart. Are you taking anything or anyone for granted? Do you ever feel bored and fed up with life? Are you a giver or a taker? Is your life one of service to your fellow human beings, or do you demand certain rights for yourself? You cannot expect to find true and lasting happiness unless you give, and are there to serve without any demand for the self in any way. Only when you can accept that this life is a life of service, a life of giving, a life of complete dedication to Me and in My service, a life where the self is forgotten and you are living for the whole, can you understand what I mean when I say that it is indeed a full and glorious life you are living and how mightily blessed you are .So start right now expanding your consciousness. Start living and working for the whole, and see how your entire outlook and attitude will change.
花時間去探索我的內心。我有認為任何事或任何人的存在與發生是理所應當的嗎？我是否曾感到無聊對生活感到厭煩？我是一個給予者還是一個索取者呢？我的生活是為同伴服務的一部分，還是我在為自己爭取權益？我無法期待會找到真正的與長久的快樂，除非我給予，以及去服務，並不以任何形式為自己謀利。
只有當我可以接受這人生是服務的人生，是給予的人生，是完全奉獻於上天及上天的服務的人生，是我為了全體而活忘我的人生，我才能理解當上天說，我所活的確實是一個豐富且榮耀的人生，以及我得到了如此多的祝福，之真正含義。所以從現在開始就擴展我的意識層面。開始為了全體去生活與工作，並且去看我的整個世界觀與態度將會如何改變。
