Swamishri (Pramukh Swami Maharaj) said, "A sadhu's life is full of altruism. He always thinks of the happiness of others. If in the process of doing good of others they have to bear hardships, they would do so cheerfully and would never deflect from their work. They are like trees and lakes. A tree gives its fruits even to the person who insults it by throwing a stone. It gives its wood even to the person who strikes it with an axe. A lake, too, does not refuse its water to anyone. Similarly, everyone can benefit from a sadhu's generosity. "Their tours are primarily to arouse people from the slumber of ignorance and to point out the goal of life. They show them the way to righteousness, devotion and redemption. "They create angelic personalities by sublimating the demonic traits present in human beings and thereby establishing peace in society. Gunatitanand Swami was very successful in this direction. He imparted the knowledge of atma and Paramatma to thousands and provided solace and comfort in adversities of life."
