Serving without self🔗

ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE

Our entire personality runs on fear and greed.

Whatever we do, we need to be motivated either by fear or greed! For example, to do your work at the office, you need to be pushed by either the desire to earn money, or the fear of losing your job. Of course, usually it is a mix of both!

We are so used to moving our body only with either a reward or a punishment in mind, we have forgotten how to do anything for the pure joy of it.

As long as you are swinging between fear and greed, you can never enjoy anything for its own sake. You think, how is it possible to work without any motivation?

Understand, when you go beyond fear and greed, you start working out of inspiration! Instead of motivation, you run on inspiration. You start acting from your being.

Selfless service does not mean making some big sacrifices, it means only this: serving without self, without the goal-oriented ego getting involved.

When this happens, not only will you become more productive, your work becomes effortless and the joy of the work becomes its own reward.
