A true student does not seek pleasure. He is no student who seeks pleasure.
The seeker of pleasure cannot be a seeker of knowledge. He should seek knowledge and never pleasure.
Fostering among people love for the Lord is his foremost duty, living for others, not for himself, is his sublime ideal. In selflessly offering himself for the service of man lies his self-contentment.
Nourishing love untainted in our heart, if you do not help fellow humans, of what use is your learning, O foolish one?"
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Summer Showers in Brindavan 1993)
