The whole world's effort of working hard goes to waste. Just as the bull [that turns the wheels on the oil mill] gets a piece of oil-cake (as a reward), the wife gives the husband a piece of handvo (savory lentil and rice cake), and so the work continues. All day long, one is producing like the bull in the oil mill. Dada Bhagwan
About This Quote

The story of the oil mill illustrates the principle of "work hard and get a reward." The bull works in the oil mill to turn the wheels that keep the mill turning. The oil cake produced by the bull is its reward. Similarly, women work hard for their husbands who produce food to nourish their families.
