A man called lallu of Morbi had been working for a number of years as a servant in Shrimadji's house-hold in bombay.
Later, when he developed a tumor, Shrimadji took personal care of him.
He nursed him till the very end.
The servant had his head resting on Shrimadji's lap when he finally breathed his last.

The servant had his head resting on Shrimadji's lap when he finally breathed his last.
Shrimadji would say, 'When a master engages a person as his servant, the intention of this man is to extract more work from the servant than the amount he spends on him.
The one who is engaged as the servant is far too poor to engage in trade or anything else, even though he is otherwise capable of doing so.'

'The master who hopes to extract more work from his servant than is reasonable in terms of money spent on him, is actually meaner than the servant and is in fact a beggar.
That master alone deserves our praises as the best of men who aims at uplifting the condition of the servant to his own level, helps him in whatever way possible, provides him with all necessary support when he is overworked.
This man will show his compassion towards the servant in these and many other ways.'
