Kallu’s Devotion

—Sri Swami Sivananda—

Kallu was the servant of Seth Ram Das.

He always used to take oath in the name of his master.

The Seth said, “O Kallu, why do you take oath In my name always?

In future take oath in your father’s name.”

Kallu replied, “O adorable Master,

Thou art my all in all.

You give me wages, food, clothing, etc.

I depend upon you for everything.

You are like my father.

You are my protector.

So I take oath in your name.”

The Seth was highly pleased with him.

Even in little worldly affairs

A human being is pleased with the devotion of his servant.

Then what to speak of God,

If you make total surrender unto Him!

Be devoted to Him, sing His praise.

He will be very pleased with you.

You will be blessed with His grace and Bliss.
