Passage 19

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

Only then is true fulfilment gained.

Give What You Know to the Many

For having studied in this Institute, you become fulfilled. So we are having you taught without taking a naya paisa from anyone in any way. What is the credit you must give to it? How are you to offer gratitude to your Institute? If you go from here and give what you learned here to the many, that itself is gratitude. This itself is true gratitude. You must take up a vow to give this. Do your own job. You need not give it up. Look after your parents; there is nothing wrong in it. But along with that, you must also offer some gratitude to the place of the teachers under whom you studied. Fill your hearts with Divinity. All that comes from there will be sacred. When you fill the Tank with sacred water, all that comes through the Taps is sacred water alone. Your heart itself is the tank. Your looks, your words, your conduct: all of them are taps. So if you fill your heart with Prema, you can experience the world with this very Prema.

Hoping and blessing that you students enter on such a path and take shape as ideal students, I bring My discourse to a close.
