10 People best known for their Social Service Work

People work really hard to earn money, but why they need money? They need money to buy the comfort and luxuries of this world so that they may lead a peaceful life. In this long run of money, fame and power people have forgotten that the eternal peace lies not in the material things but in the spiritual satisfaction. The contentment of brain lies in the conciliation of heart, and heart? Heart is a slave of our soul. Soul is only satisfied when your creator is satisfied. The path to God’s blessing passes through the heart of his men, if want to have God’s endowment then you should help his men, if you seeks God’s compensation then you must make life easier for his creatures.

The secret to God’s blessing is very simple, serve his men. But the people have failed in doing it so, God is the most easiest to make pacify but we run after all the material lusts rather than following our true path. This fake beauty has made us blind; this eroticism has made the humans incapable. There are only few people who realized the reality of this world, they have found out that this world is actually a very ugly place which is full of hatred. They have found out the actual reason for their existence and have come to know what their true path is. These are people who have contributed their lives for the betterment of human kind.

The spiritual peace comes when you reduce someone else’s pain, when you see that you have filled an empty stomachs with food, when you see that you have made the person sitting next to you smile. There are people who actually ignored their own desires and went out in the world to fix other people’s life.  Rather than gathering money and fame so themselves, they worked for the benefits of others.
