Please reflect on the teachings below and share the message of “giving” in our Balavihars, to our family and friends and help make CORD walk-a-thon and the program a Grand Success!!
- The Taittiriya Upanisad says: “Srddhaya deyam, Asraddhaya'deyam, Sriya deyam, Hriya deyam, Bhiya Deyam, Samvida deyam - “Give with faith. Do not give without faith. It should be given in plenty, with modesty, with sympathy, with sensitivity. Give with a feeling of abundance. Give with right understanding”
- Lord Sri Krishna in Bhagavad Geeta taught us ”That gift which is given, knowing it to be a duty, in a fit time and place, to a worthy person (or cause), from whom we expect nothing in return, is held to be Sattwic”
- Our great Saint Kabir sang “Mutti Bandhe Aye Jagat Me Haath Phasare Jaage Bhai” - “You came into this world with fists closed and you go away with open palms. So even while living stretch your hand open and give liberally.”
