Highlights

Our life, our time here in this world is very short; we have to make the best use of it. Don’t ask people to serve us; we have to ask how we can serve people. If we do it wholeheartedly, we will always feel fulfilled, satisfied. We provide for people, and God will provide for us; this is the way of working in the universe. We ought to be the forerunners, leaders of the world, leading the world into a new age with a new spirit of serving and loving each other. We have to show others how to be noble, how to sacrifice, and how to love. As long as we live, we must dedicate our whole to the goodness and progress of mankind, the whole world, and the whole universe. Our vision must be great, greater than life; must be so noble that we have nothing else to lose. We fear nothing in such greatness of a vision. Every obstacle becomes so small in such a vision.
