Till you reach the state of jnana and thus wake out of maya you must do social service by relieving suffering whenever you see it. But even then you must do it without ahankara, i.e., without the sense of 'I am the doer', but with the feeling 'I am the Lord's tool'.
Ramana MaharshiThe thing to do is to concentrate on the seer and not on the seen, not on the objects, but on the Light which reveals them.
