In plain words
In my hour of need you helped me. Help means service. With Ahaṅkāra you declared that you are no one's servant. Now you have helped me, helpless as I am, by handing me the stick. Now I am the master and you are the servant,’ he said. In this way, knowingly or unknowingly, every person is a servant to the others, not a leader. As far as a man can help, so far is he a servant.
God alone loves all without desire for reward
In the world, every person begins a task with some desire or other in his mind. Wanting some reward or other, he loves another. A person who loves others without desire for reward is not to be found in the world. So every man who lives with a desire for reward is a servant, no more! God alone loves all without desire for reward. So He alone is the master. The one who seeks no reward is the master. The one who acts for a reward is the servant. So all of us are servants! World is like a stage, all are actors. Only God is Director. Thinking we are masters, believing we are rich, swaggering in the pride of authority, we hang back in service. But this is not right. ‘I came into this world for service, not to live as a master. I must serve others. My Ānanda lies in the spirit of service itself, and there is no Ānanda in feeling powerful,’ each one must believe. Money is a help to us in this world up to a point. But this money does not satisfy our hunger. Only food satisfies hunger. Money does not give us beauty. Our character alone gives beauty. So everything is gained only in a broad heart. Today we are not in the right state, we cannot enjoy Śānti and happiness, and we fall prey to unrest of many kinds: we must put the question to ourselves, what is the reason for this?
