Jiva Seva is Shiva Seva:
Service to humanity is Service to God
May I be born again and again, and suffer thousands of miseries so that I may worship the only God that exists, the only God I believe in, the sum total of all souls—and above all, my God the wicked, my God the miserable, my God the poor of all races, of all species, is the special object of my worship.
- Swami Vivekananda, CW, 5:137
