So very true, sister Jayanti.

The same can be said for the many selfless volunteers, who render valuable service in hospitals, geriatric centers, food banks, etc.

Quietly going about their work, it never crosses their minds, that they are the 'real heroes' of our society.

As a matter of fact, it is totally unthinkable, that our world would be able to do without them.

The core strength of our Western Democracies, lies in the long tradition of volunteerism.

As you noted, they are unconsciously practicing a form of Karma Yoga, without even acknowledging their deep spiritual qualities.
