Real love is expressed through service. A mother is willing to do anything and everything to serve the child. She is willing to stay up late in the night, willing to clean all the mess that the child creates and willing to sacrifice her very life for the child. That is service.
– Radhanath Swami

Service cannot be performed perfectly unless performed with real love. Else it is a sham. Jai Maharaj!

Radhanath Swami through the example of mother’s love for child has given a wonderful illustration of real love and service.
practical example of love, so very true………
one of the highest form of real selfless love found in this material world is love of a mother for her child
Very true. There can not be love without service. More we love more be become enthusiastic to serve.
Radhanath Swami has many times in his classes has mentioned that anything in this world which is closest to Love of God is a mother’s unconditional love for her child.
a real example of selfless and thankless service
Best example put in a best words ….
We do need an enlightened personality like Radhanath Swami to tell us what should be the goal of our life. Thank you.
Radhanath Swami teaches everybody how to achieve real goal?
Thank you very much.! Nice Article.!
Thank you Radhanath Swami for helping us understand the mood in which we should be performing our devotional service
Thank you Radhanath Swami Maharaj for giving us this beautiful example of service.
Service is directly connected with sacrifice out of love, Radhanath Swami clarifies this, which I have improve upon.
All Glories To H.H Radhanath Swami Maharaj
How true. Our service becomes the manifestation of our love.
Hare Krishna
such a beautiful example of service.
As Radhanath Swami said, service is the medium through which we show our love to God and His devotees.
Thanks to H.H Radhnath Swami to let me understand what is pure Love and why Service is so much empasised in the path of devotion.
Thank you very much Radhanath swami maharaj for creating such a wonderful community of devotees which is expression of your compassion and love for the suffering souls like us and your loving service to your Spiritual master Srila Prabhupad.
Radhanath Swami is himself a shining example of such love. His whole life is nothing but sacrifice.
Love means to give, and lust means to take. Endlessly.
Very wonderful anology by Radhanath Swami to explain unconditional and genuine love. Thank you Radhanath Swami for such an instructive and thought provoking quote.
It is very true statement of Radhanath swami, real love means sacrifice —-
Radhanath Swami has given an amazing understanding of love and service. If we love someone then we should be ready to serve selflessly.
I liked what Manish Parmar wrote. Service may come at any time but in love we will respond irrespective of time.
There is a need for constant remembrance as to how to serve others. and not serve oneself.
thank you maharaj
Service for the sake of others’ happiness is real love. Radhanath Swami personally exemplifies this statement.
I remember distinctly Maharaj’s words, that service does not see any time, he call may be at any time, we should be ready to render service at any time, although it may be discomfirting sometimes.
Our service to krsna should also be like that of selfless nature
A mother’s love for her child is the closest thing to God’s love for His children. How much more must He be sacrificing for us. Thank you Radhanath Swami for this insight.
Because Radhanath swami has given this beeutiful example of mother, we can so evidently see that how real love is selfless, for the pleasure of our beloved.
yes this make sense as there is no real love without selfless service.
Yes,The love must be selfless — Thank you Radhanth swami maharaj
Radhanath Swami is laying down clearly of what constitutes service and how love is expressed. The example given of a mother is really so apt.
very nice quote to be selfless. thanks maharaj
By using the analogy of mother’s love for her child, Radhanath Swami has touched upon the quitissential nature of real service – selfless & without motivation.
Thank you for teaching us how to love
There is no love without sacrifice
Radhanath Swami is giving real meaning of love.In today’s world it’s meaning is perverted and used to achieve one’s own selfish end.
Truly, there is no meaning to love, relationships without service and sacrifice.
Radhanath Swami gives us a perfect example that in what mood one should offer his/her services to others.Thank you for sharing with us.
Very appropriate example for service….thanks……..mother’s love towards her child is truly unmotivated & pure……..
Very nice quote. Radhanath swami has that real love.
Very nice quote
This is such a nice analogy. A mother will never think whether she likes doing something or not. As long as it is for the benefit of the child, she will do anything. So much to learn and strive for.
The love of God can be achieved only by service. Radhnath Swami has very nicely explained the importance of devotional service, with this example.
Mother’s love in the material world is the most closest to that of God’s. Maharaj has nicely explained by example what is selfless service.
Service – this is the underlying principle on which all relations sustain, yes love is needed but something needs to be done for a loved one mere words may sound impressive for some time, but without service the relation has no meaning, Radhanath Swamis quote through the example of a mother brings forth this aspect.
