Humanitarian service is service to God: Guv

PANJIM:  Stating that humanitarian service is service to God, Governor P S Sreedharan Pillai on Monday visited and inspected Bal Kalyan Ashram, Matruchhaya at Talaulim, Ponda.

The Governor said in the next two months, he would visit various social organisations working in Goa to know about their problems and issues.  Referring to former President of India Dr A P J Abdul Kalam, the Governor called him a great example of humanity whose approach was closer to the common man.  The Governor said he can learn a lot by visiting such Ashrams and organizations doing humanitarian work. 

“A similar dilemma arose on Republic Day when I was in Mizoram. From a humanitarian point of view, I have solved that problem. No one can bring about change in a society, but a person’s attitude and attitude to change the situation can make a big difference,” he said.

 The Governor said, “The Raj Bhavan will always help those organizations which are inculcating the human race in their childhood and working to understand God’s service.”

 He said, “Man can achieve success over mankind through good manners. Senior scientist Albert Einstein was transformed into the world’s greatest scientist by a change caused by a simple phenomenon. A positive change can happen in any situation of the mind and this change leads to change. According to Swami Vivekananda, education is a process to bring man to perfection. Swami Vivekananda’s religion was to keep people learning. Humanitarian service is service to God and on the same principle; organizations such as Matruchhaya are working and doing well in different parts of the country.
