Do all your duties, but keep your mind on God. Live with all - with wife, and children, Father and Mother - and serve them. Treat them as if they were very dear to you, but know in your heart of hearts that they do not belong to you. Everything belongs to God alone. A maidservant in the house of a rich man performs all the household duties, but her thoughts are fixed on her own home. She brings up master’s children as if they were her own. She even speaks of them as ‘My Rama’ or ‘My Hari'. But in her own mind, she knows very well that they do not belong to her at all. - Bhagwan Sri Ramakrishna Dev.
