Purpose of Service to God

Aum Sairam

The Lord does not need your service in anyway for His work. He is only testing your attitude of sincerity in His work by taking help from you in His work. You should not think that He really needs your help. You should also not think that you need not help Him because He does not need your help. Both these are the two branches of ignorance. He is actually testing your extent of sacrifice towards Him and thus He does not need your help in reality. But based on this reality you should not withdraw your help to Him because He is testing your attitude and the extent to which you work for Him. When the examiner asks a question, the student should not think that the examiner is really ignorant about the answer and is in search of the answer from the student. The student should also not keep silent thinking that there is no need of giving an answer to the examiner since the examiner already knows the answer. Both these views of the student regarding the examiner are wrong. Neither did Shri Ram need the help of the monkeys in the battle nor the monkeys kept silent, without helping Shri Ram thinking that Shri Ram does not require any help in reality. The reality is that Shri Ram did not require any help and that the monkeys helped Shri Ram to the best of their ability to prove their real interest in God.
