On His 2015 trip to Italy, Swami was asked how one can help others without them taking advantage of our service:
When you do any service, there are two things that you must know: one, whether whom you want to serve deserves your service; and second, more importantly, whether you deserve to serve them. Most of the time we ask whether the other person truly deserves our help. Rarely do we question ourselves whether we deserve to help them, in the first place. What you talk about today is whether they deserve your help or not. However, what I ask you today is whether you deserve to serve at all. Any service done with any expectation is not selfless. Once you have helped someone, because your heart told you so, don’t even turn back and see what they have done with it. Once it is given away, it is no more yours and there is no way you can claim it or judge what was done with it. However, listen to what your heart says and then serve.

Divine Mother and Child Health programme screenings in Murwillumbah, Melbourne and Perth were conducted by health practitioners and young adults on October 01, 2017.
As part of the Divine Mother and Child Health programme young adults from Brisbane, Gold Coast and Murwillumbah with the help of nurses and dentists from the Health in Kind Foundation conducted medical and dental screenings on October 01, 2017 in Murwillumbah, New South Wales. The health practitioners realised the great need for screening younger women due to the mental and physical effects that carry on to the next generation if their health is neglected from a very young age. They could also see the damage in the older children due to the mental and emotional activity of the parents influenced from a very young age, hence the need for screening expecting mothers early, as guided by Swami. In Melbourne, young adults setup free dental and medical screening which they used as time to work and plan for future screening opportunities.

With my deepest gratitude and love towards Swami, I thank him for giving me this opportunity to share my transformation which took place years back and Swami had been part of it.

At the age of seven years old, I was highly suspected of having dengue fever. I was down with high fever for more than a week. My parents had to rush me to the hospital frequently and they also had to spend a lot of money too, as I also had to have a blood test frequently to reconfirm the dengue fever. I felt really weak and sick. My mother kept on praying to Swami to cure me as fast as possible. She believed and had extreme faith on Swami.
