karma yoga

Let us do good because it is good to do good. Those who do good work
even in order to get to heaven bind themselves down, says the Karma
Yogi. Any work that is done with any the least selfish motive, instead
of making us free, forges one more chain for our feet.

Class on Karma Yoga. New York, 1896. Complete Works, 1:116.

Gospel of Holy Mother

Does one acquire faith by mere study of books? Too much study creates
confusion.
P. 323 The Gospel of The Holy Mother

Faith

Since there was no rain in a village, all village people approached a
priest to get his opinion. The priest said,' we need to perform
Yagnya for the rain.' Village people told him to find a suitable day
and requested him to perform Yagnya. A day was fixed for the same.
In the early hours on that day, all villagers were ready to go for the
yagnya. One small boy in a house asked them,' where are you all
prepared to go?' The villagers told,' Yagnya is going to be performed
by a group of pandits for the purpose of rain and hence we are all in
a hurry to go.' The boy who is holding the Umbrella told the crowd
why are you all rushing without taking the Umbrella. The rain will
come and all will be drenched.'

The above story conveys the message of the Un-shakable faith. Pandit
performed the rituals just like any other regular duty. Villagers
were rushing just to fulfill the requirement of formalities with the
state of mind of doubt. The boy only had the Faith of definite result
of rain if the yagnya is performed and hence he was prepared to go
with the Umbrella.

Christ said,' A Seed of faith will move the mountain.'. People
thought his miracle cured a leprosy and diseased and told ,Sir, your
miracles cured them.' For which he replied,' I did not cure them .
Their Faith cured their disease and not me.'

Similarly the mind is possessed of noble thoughts at times and haunted
by evil thoughts at other moments. P. 322 The Gospel of The Holy
Mother

But to know that ye spoke unkindly and suffered for it, and in the
present may correct it by being righteous--that is worth while!
