Rakhturam had a natural frankness and honesty that were enhanced by his youth and lack of sophistication. Ramchandra came to trust him. Once a friend of Ramchandra suspected that Rakhturam had stolen some coins from the household shopping money. Wanting to protect Ramchandra, the friend asked Rakhturam, “My boy, tell me honestly — how much did you pocket today?” Rakhturam retorted sharply, “Sir, I am a servant, not a thief!” The boldness of this reply offended the man and he complained to Ramchandra. But Ramchandra supported the boy and said: “He is not a thief. Whatever he needs he asks from my wife.” (Source: God Lived with Them)

Remember that one should serve God, the guru, and the sick with great love and humility.”
