“Why should you cater to the dictates of your palate, adding chillies, salt, tamarind, and spices? It is only when you gradually reduce these ingredients for taste you will be able to cultivate satva guna. Parents have a great responsibility in teaching the children about the efficacy of satvic food and getting them accustomed to it right from their childhood. On the other hand, if the parents themselves prepare and serve rajasic and tamasic food consisting of meat, fish, etc., in their homes, how can they expect the children to develop satva guna?”

“The act of service is not to be judged, according to the cost or publicity it entails; it may be only the offering of a cup of water in the depth of a jungle. But the need of the recipient, the mood of the person who offers - these decide whether the act is gold or lead. Fill every act of yours with Love. Let no one suffer the slightest pain as a result of your thought, word, or deed. Let this be your Sadhana. It will surely help you to achieve the Goal.”
