Giving is the number one subject of blessing. We ordinary beings are born with two kinds of troubles, namely, saving and greed.
Saving means being stingy, not wanting to give to others what you have; greed means wanting to own what you don’t own. If he gives others a dollar, he feels psychologically uncomfortable. If he gets a dime from others, he feels very happy. He has an innate habit.
The two worries of saving and greed close our door to good karma, our inherent moral virtue is blocked by these two worries, and our minds are narrowed. So we must give. Greed is a disease. How to treat this disease? Its prescription is generosity.
As soon as you give alms, the troubles of greed will be cured, the treasure of your inner mind will be opened, and your mind will be opened. At this time, if you give some benefits to sentient beings, they will be happy, and sentient beings will be happy and you will feel happy too.
Why a philanthropist is willing to do charity? He has a psychological feeling-when he helps others, he will feel that he is very happy and feels ecstatic. With this feeling alone, he felt it was worth doing.
When you feel ecstatic, your body and mind are full of Harmony. The first direct benefit is that it is beneficial to your physical health. At the same time, when others are grateful to you, you will feel spiritually happy as well. And the seeds you sow will be rewarded in the future, and the way of heaven is good! So generosity is an important subject for repairing merit.
But for generosity, some people say: "I don't have money, can I cultivate happiness?" You don't have money, you can rejoice, and you are also cultivating happiness.
It's as if two people are buying and selling incense, and you stand by and rejoice, and you are contaminated with the fragrance. We should not think that we must have a lot of wealth to cultivate happiness. You must first initiate this kind of heart that benefits sentient beings and cultivates good fortune. This is the merit of generosity. -Master Daan
