The role of service – a compilation
– From a selection of quotations on the theme of 'The role of service' from Maitreya (Messages from Maitreya the Christ, and Maitreya’s Teachings – The Laws of Life), Benjamin Creme's Master (A Master Speaks), and Benjamin Creme's writings. See also compilation on service in Share International January/February 2008.
"God’s nature is to love. God’s purpose is to serve. God is known through Sharing and Justice. Spread abroad these simple Truths, My friends, and perform a mighty act."
"The time has come, as never before, to act in accordance with your professed ideals, and to make manifest the vision enshrined in your heart."
"To serve even one individual is to serve the Lord Himself. In service you will never be lost."
"Service is the impulse of the soul, the carrying out of soul purpose. The soul incarnates to serve the Plan of evolution, which is to spiritualize matter."
"That there is a universe at all is due to the service activity of the great Consciousness which stands behind it and has brought it into manifestation. The reason that we are on this planet, as thoughtforms in the mind of the creating Logos, is because the Logos Himself is serving the Plan of evolution of the Solar Logos. We are part of that great Plan and, if the Solar Logos sees service as the be-all and end-all of His activity, then I think, as dim reflections of that deity, we may conclude that we must ourselves be about service. It could not be otherwise. Service takes us back eventually, in full Logoic consciousness, to identity with the Logos of which we are a part."
