One may be a master of all the Scriptures
And competent to teach the Vedanta;
One may be a great ruler
Living in a many-splendoured mansion;
One may be a valiant hero
Who has vanquished his enemies;
Or one may be a pitiable
Victim of poverty and privation.
If he has no devotion in him
His life is devoid of meaning.
A servant who is filled with love of the Lord
Is more to be adored than the overlord of the world.
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
