Is charity only giving away huge sums of money? Do we need to practice restraint even in doing charity?

Life itself is like a limited company. All actions in it should be governed by the limits applicable to each of them.

When desires are controlled, genuine happiness is experienced. Even in practising charity, limits should be observed.

Your gifts should not exceed your financial capacity. Nor should they be below your capacity.

If you exceed your limits, you will face financial problems later. If you are stingy, you will be withholding from those in need, what is due to them.

Always remember, charity should not be limited to money alone and charity should not be indiscriminate.

You must share your physical, mental and spiritual resources, with those in need in your community, appropriately.

Help spontaneously, according to the needs of the situation. The hungry must be fed and, clothes and relief must be given to the needy.

It is through such sharing and sacrifice that the awareness of the Spirit (Atma jnana) is achieved.

- Divine Discourse, May 14, 1984.

The touchstone for virtue is your keenness to sacrifice, to develop detachment.

Don't get tired of helping others. You will be rewarded when the time is right, if you don't give up.
