	Seva Foundation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Seva Foundation is a non-profit foundation, founded in December, 1978, whose goal is to build partnerships to respond to "locally defined problems with culturally sustainable solutions throughout the world." In Sanskrit seva means "selfless service".
		Seva has various missions to respond to these 'local problems', from sight saving and restoring projects in Nepal, India, Tibet, Cambodia and Tanzania, to community self-development projects in Chiapas and Guatemala, to diabetes prevention programs and grants for indigenous peoples of North America.
		Baba Ram Dass, a founding board member, spiritual teacher and advisor, and champion of Seva was honored in the DVD Fierce Grace in which Ram Dass talks about the founding of Seva by Larry Brilliant and Girija Brilliant, a devoted group of doctors, social workers, activists, and at least one clown.

	Concept of Seva
		Seva through the mental faculties (man) lies in contributing one's talents - creative, communicative, managerial, etc. - to the corporate welfare of the community and mankind in general.
		Seva must be so carried out as to dissolve the ego and lead to self-transcendence, which is the ability to acknowledge and respond to that which is other than the self.
		True seva according to Sikh scriptures must be without desire (nishkam), in humility (nimarta), with purity of intention (hirda suddh), with sincerity (chit lae) and in utter selflessness (vichon aap gavae).

	Cultivating Seva: Selfless Service as Devotion :: Yoga.com
		Seva, a Sanskrit word, springs from two forms of yoga, Karma Yoga which is yoga of action and Bhakti Yoga, the yoga of worship inspired by divine love.
		Seva is one of the simplest and yet most profound and life changing ways that we can put our spiritual knowledge into action.
		Seva should be done with no expectation of reward or even acknowledgement of the work that is done.

	An Approach to Seva Yoga
		Seva yoga, practised with awareness, is also a practice of purification and transformation, but the focus is different.
		In seva yoga the focus moves from the body (although the body is certainly utilized) to the mind, particularly the aspects of mind involved in that construction that we identify with as our 'personality'.
		Seva yoga is usually described as service, but this word does not quite capture the essence of seva.

		Seva finds its fullest expression in the formation of the All India Anti Untouchability League, founded on October 26, 1932 by caste Hindus under the chairmanship of Madan Mohan Malaviya; G D Birla became the president and A V Thakkar the secretary.
		This operational concept of seva was an integral elaboration of the thought of an upper-caste as it learnt to become an elite overcoming the challenges to its hegemony from different directions.
		Seva is the process by which one group finds a universal meaning, thus marginalising all the other groups in the solution to its fundamental problem.
