1️⃣ Explanatory structure with माना

• X रखना माना Y है
  → Doing X is considered to be Y

Here:

• उम्मीद रखना = keeping hope
• माना … है = is considered as
• सर्विस का शौक = the liking / passion for service

➡️ The sentence functions like a definition or principle.

2️⃣ Meaning of service in this context

Based on the surrounding lines:

• Explaining with हुल्लास (hullās = enthusiasm)
• Without insisting on immediate results
• Without becoming discouraged if someone does not decide quickly

👉 Service is measured by attitude, not by immediate outcomes.

3️⃣ Hope vs. expectation

Here, उम्मीद रखना does not mean:

• rigid expectation
• emotional dependence on results

It means:

• trust in time and destiny (भाग्य)
• acceptance that each soul understands at its own pace

This is reinforced by:

• अभी नहीं तो आगे चलकर समझेंगे जरूर
• थकना नहीं है

🌱 Overall meaning with context

The sentence conveys:

If you continue to explain with enthusiasm,
accept that some understand immediately and others later,
and do not become inwardly tired,
then your hope itself shows that service is your natural inclination.

👉 Hope becomes the inner proof that service is done with love, not as a burden.
