. Read the following passage.
Giving soothes an individual with the vibration of joy. Unconditional giving is a natural principle and evident everywhere with the solids, liquids and minerals. Water gives itself away for our agriculture and other uses. Trees give flowers, fruits and wood. Air gives us the very life ? breath and the sun gives us light of life.
Even the animals give us milk, egg, meat, skin and various services. But what do we human contribute to the cosmos in return? Isn?t our role predominately selfish and destructive? We expand civilization to disturb ecological balance, spread pollution in the fresh natural atmosphere, indulge in ruthless deforestation , kill animals even for sport and consume all natural resources for our own selfish interest.
It is always great to make donations, but what about giving your own time? It?s wonderful to drop off used clothing, books and toys at a shelter for the homeless, but what about spending an hour each week reading and playing with the deprived children? Come face to face with the person you are helping. It will make your giving more meaningful.
It is not about just the time that you give to the deprived children, but what you give to your family. Are you there when they need you? Or, is it always you who demand help and cooperation from the rest of your family members? How much do you care for the elderly that live with you or are far away from you? How do you utilize your spare moments? Isn?t it that you just sit before the television and keep on flipping the channels trying to find something that suits your interest? Shut it down! ? You can use these precious spare moments making a ?Get Well Soon? card for your grandmother, or someone dear to you not in good spirits, or send a letter via internet. Why be on the ?Facebook? all the time chatting with your friends whom you already meet daily at school?
The law of karma is a natural law whereby we are paid back in the same coin. We have added much for our comforts but we have not been able to attain peace and tranquility. We are constantly haunted by excessive greed for grabbing which is severely disturbing peaceful coexistence. We rarely do what we can for preservation of nature and even our own fellowmen. We have not moved much from the primitive selfish mentality where self-preservation was the law for survival.
What can we give back to the cosmos? We humans are predominantly gifted with mind and intellect. These are very sharp instruments indeed which can be used as surgeon?s knife for healing or an instrument for killing. Instead of nurturing anger, jealousy, hatred, selfishness and animosity, we can spread love, care, kindness and benevolence to all and thereby transform, the earthy vibration into a heavenly one. If not anything else, we can at least pray for the happiness and well-being of all. We are here in the image of God. We have divine inheritance of love, wisdom and self-transformation. We may resolve to be engaged in divine enjoyment of nature and God?s creation with love. Jesus said, ?Those that give shall receive.? Instead of being always at the receiving end, let us abide by the principle of giving by all means and see how things change for humanity at large.
