North Dallas Sai Center
Seva
Sri. Sathya Sai Baba’s clarion calls “Love all Serve all” is being echoed through the diverse
service activities of the Sai Centers through the world. This section acquaints you with the
opportunities our North Dallas Center provides to anyone (you don’t have to be a member
of the center) who wishes to join us in serving fellowmen.
Service or Seva in the Sai Baba center is primarily a Spiritual Sadhana, to elevate us in thru
constant practice to the reality that the same Divinity exists in all of us. Swami says “The best way to
please me is to see Me in all beings and serve them just as you would like to serve Me”.
Swamy says - As a preliminary to Seva (selfless service) you have to attain purity of heart. You must
examine your motives and skills, your intentions and qualifications, and discover for yourself what you
hope to achieve through Seva. You should ferret out any trace of egoism, and also the desire for
fame. You have to get rid of all sense of mine and thine and burn to ashes the pride that comes from
the feeling that you are offering service to someone poorer and less fortunate. Give up pride of
status, wealth, scholarship and position, and practise humility, obedience, discipline and compassion.
How can we help?
Help as much as you can,
As efficiently as you can,
As silently as you can,
As lovingly as you can.
Leave the rest to God who gave you the chance to serve.
Why cant we serve on our own, why join a group service project?
Swami says – “What a single individual cannot accomplish a well-knit group or society can achieve. A
man walking alone will feel tired and miserable at the end of five miles, but walking with a group would
find the five miles a happy jaunt. He arrives refreshed and strong”.
Our projects have been selected to accommodate the diverse needs/abilities of the participants. If
none of these projects address your specific areas of interest, please contact the Seva coordinator
and we will find you something suitable.
Swami reminds us – “God will not ask you what seva did you do? He will ask, with what motive did you
do it? What was the intention that prompted it? You may weigh the Seva and boast of its quantity. But,
God seeks quality, the quality and holiness of the heart and the purity of the mind”.
Our Service Projects Include:
American Cancer Society, Nursing Home Service Projects, Visiting the Elderly, Austin Street Shelter
Narayan Seva, Holiday Meals-on-wheels, Breakfast for Homeless and project at Scottish Rite hospital.
