Only the Unconditional Givers Are the Noble Ones, Part 4 of 6

Give to the poorest kids, those who need warm clothes. Understand? You teach them. You observe and see which are the most in need ones. OK? But you should also report it to the school principal and the organization. Otherwise, they would think that you’re doing something in private, then it’s not right. Do everything candidly. If they disagree, then stop. OK? Don’t do it in private which is not correct and would set a bad example for the children. (Understand.) Even good deeds, we should do it candidly.

Only the unconditional givers are the noble ones. If we always expect something in return for whatever we do, it’s too low level. Besides, we sometimes do things not for merit; perhaps we need to repay what we owe to others or to the world. So, don’t wait to do things. (Understand.) Don’t expect anything in return. Don’t have to change often.

I also said that the monks and the nuns, you should take care (of them) especially, because they don’t always have good (vegan) food. Not always does somebody offer food to them. And if they stay only one or two people in the temple, they don’t cook this lavishly. So, if they have a chance to come here, we should give them more.
