The many roles of Swamishri.

Sometimes we can catch a glimpse

of all these within the space of

just a few hours. He opens his

doors to the world, and for those

their hearts, letting in light where

Aspirant : What does one, who wants nothing from this world or from life, live for?

Swamishri : For the benefit and good of others.

What if he doesn’t want do good unto others?

Swamishri : Well, at least he’ll do bhajan of God.

But what if he doesn’t wish to attain God?

Swamishri : If he doesn’t serve others or himself and he doesn’t wish to attain God, then his life is meaningless. There is no benefit of living such a life. God has given us this life and so we are obliged to at least help others.
