Telling people of some wonderful service that we have done in a boastful way, nullifies the credit of the service. May not be on the eternal platform, but in our conscious condition we won’t be able to reap the real benefits of that service.
- Radhanath Swami
Such a fine details which is so important.
Very inspiring statement .I would like to come to the level to impliment it in my life n require your blessings Radhanath Swami .
Thank you, Radhanath swami maharaj for quoting this sentence, from now onwards I will take care of this.
Thank you Radhanath Swami for such an inspiring statement.
Second part of the quote explains what we really loose by boasting of the services rendered by us – benfits of that service in present conscious condition.
Radhanath swami’s quotes always teach us to be meek and humble.
Radhanath Swami Maharaj touches the essence of all the rituals and thus makes us imbibe the correct mood and gain ultimate benefit.
The benefit will be corrupt by the false ego …………………………
The statement vidicates the famous saying that “do your duty and leave it to God”.We must try and try in our daily life to follow this quote.So many times we say this famous saying but internally we are not as clear as what that Radhanath swami said.So let us try and follow it from right now.Thanks for sharing.
Pride spoils the credits of service.
Humility is one of the basic pillars of onself.
Very important quote in the life of devotee. We should perform any service with the desire to please the Lord and His devotees, and not to please our ego. Service attitude is so crucial. Maharajah pointed out so nicely, once we boast about our service, it affects our consciousness and we don’t receive any benefit from that service.
very thoughtful and deep statement
wonderful quote on having the right attitude
Maharaj Please bless us to have this attitude in whatever service we do
Thank you very much Maharaj for teaching us that the service should be in a right way
Radhanath Swami, with this quote clearly differentiates the nature of material world with that of pure spiritual nature. It is becuse of the mercy of pure devotees like Radhanath Swami we are able to render some service as instruments in the hands of God. And as such nothing happens in our life without the intervention and blessings of pure devotees like Radhanath Swami. All the credit to Radhanath Swami for keeping us always remember this important aspect in our devotional life.
This is a wonderful thought to keep me firmly grounded in reality. Whenever next I try to blow my own trumpet, I’ll remember this quote of Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
All GLories To H.H.Radhanath Swami Maharaj
Thank you Maharaj for such an wonderful quote.
Hare Krishna
To follow Radhanath Swami means coming out of our false ego and establish in the true spirit of our consciousness. Thank you Radhanath Swami for the wonderful quote.
How clear and complete…
Thank u Radhanath Swami for such an inspiring statement. I pray to Lord & seek ur blessings Radhanath Swami that one day even i imbibe this wonderful quality.
When we hear a someone speaking with pride about his/her acheivements, we tend to turn off. Similarly, as pointed by Radhanath Swami, when we boast about our service with pride, it must be putting others off too (including the divine)
Radhanath Maharaj is revealing the mood in which the services should be performed.
Radhanath Swami’s statements are realizations of the practise of humility – which he is a torch bearer.
Krishna likes us when we are humble…
If we take the credit, it will be impossible to give credit where it is due—to the Lord, to saints and seniors who have really helped us.
wonderful lesson in humility
Good message by Radhanath Swami to our mind and false ego which is constantly hankering to hear praise about our own selves
Radhanath Swami Maharaj’s words will protect us from pride!
Radhanath Swami teaches us to be the humble servant of the servant of the servant of the Lord
Radhanath Swami thankyou for sharing such a wonderful thought
I have the experience when i am boastful tendency in me is to show other devotee i am better than you and that actual has costed me a lot in terms of my spiritual progress. I am hoping that one day by sincerely following instructions of Radhanath Swami i will be able to give up my shortcomings.
What a wonderful to explain how to develop service attitude by Radhanath Swami
Jesus Christ said – “The left hand should not know what the right hand is doing”. Radhanath Swami has given a gem of a advice on service attitude which extends Jesus Christ’s teachings.
Radhanath Swami always impresses on his disciples & followers to always remain humble in all situations……….
Thank you for showing us the right service attitude.
What a wonderful lesson Maharaj has taught, even while doing seva Maya tests us sometime by brining ego or attachment towards the seva we are doing.
All glories to Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
This should be the attitude of service
Thanks for sharing this nice quote. I pray and hope that I can follow this 
This amazing advice challenges the process that the rest of the world follows. Usually, the louder one boasts, the more one “benefits:” fame, fortune, only to end up with entanglement and suffering. Please, let me obtain the ability to overcome this ego.
Thank you Radhanath Swami for telling the right mood of serving
It is becuse of the mercy of pure devotees like Radhanath Swami we are able to render some service as instruments in the hands of God.
All the credit to Radhanath Swami for keeping us always remember this important aspect in our devotional life.
Boasting is actually feeding our false ego. One of the subtle senses is false ego, and unless this is controlled, it is very difficult to make any spiritual advancement or to chant purely. Thank you Maharaj for this wonderful instruction.
thank you maharaj…
Radhanath swami has made a deep statement about serving without any expectation. THank you
