"I have a task: To foster all mankind and ensure for all of them lives full of bliss.
I have a vow: To lead all who stray away from the straight path again into goodness and save them.
I am attached to the work that I love: To remove the sufferings of the poor and grant them what they lack."
- Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, May 25, 1947
