dattaswami Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Analyse the deservingness before doing charity Lord Jesus says that there are four types of beggars to whom you can offer food. They are children, very old people, diseased and people who have lost their limbs. Except for these four types, food should not be offered to beggars who are capable of doing work. For such beggars you can help by showing how to find work. So a lot of analysis is needed whenever you are doing charity. By your charity if somebody gains strength and does a sin, you have to share that sin. If you give milk to a snake with pity it will bite you and others. So you have to analyze and use a lot of discrimination in doing charity because you may be purchasing sin. Therefore you must take the help of Sadguru in doing charity. You pity a beggar but he is a sinner punished by God for his previous sin. Your pity and charity to Him may annoy God because God wants to punish him and you are obstructing his punishment. Such a fellow may do sins again due to the effect of his previous mentality. In such a case you will be sharing his sin. The beggars also adopt certain cheating methods.So before doing charity you should spend sometime in analyzing the case history of the beggar. Instead of giving Re 1 to ten beggars by giving ten paise each, spend sometime in the analysis and give a rupee to the deserving beggar. Such charity brings lot of good results to you.
