Daily life

Give in charity

Charity is counted among the divine qualities. Give what you can, without show and without expecting a return.

Both Kṛṣṇa and Nārada name charity among the qualities of a good life. Give what is in your means, to a person or a cause that truly needs it, and do it quietly. A small gift made regularly is better than a large one made once for show.
