India was a great believer in the act of charity being pious and spiritually enriching.

The Spiritual Essence of Giving

Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj stated that real charity is from the heart, with no expectation of return.

Philanthropy in Trying Times

Our world today is confronted with various challenges—poverty, disease, illiteracy, and displacement. Under such circumstances, philanthropy is not only a great idea but a force required to heal. Organizations motivated by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, like JKP (Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat), have come forward to fill the gaps in such requirements by providing free food, medical aid, education, and relief during emergencies to distressed people.

His dream was simple: everyone should have dignity, care, and a chance to live a worthwhile life. Philanthropy is what bridges our ability to provide that chance for others.

Generosity as an act is not a burden, but rather it is a pleasure. Swami Ji Maharaj also often said that this world becomes pure when selfishness is reduced from the heart and love for others increases in the heart. Maharaj Ji, years back, stated that through giving, one feels happy and less stressed, which empowers the human soul.

Whether it is a hot meal for a neighbor, a child’s sponsorship, or a kind word, every action can make the world a little brighter and brighter for everyone including us.

Thus, by giving, one contributes actively to making the world a more hospitable and friendly place, which according to Maharaj Ji, is everyone’s task.
