Guest guest Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 In this illusionary world it is difficult to identify a genuinely needy person whom one would like to help. We see beggars in and around the temple or on streets, and we daily read that there are many of them who are self-sufficient and resort to begging only out of lack of interest in working. How should one go about helping a needy? Everyone is needy. Everyone, a king or a poor man is a beggar before God. Everyone prays to God for something or the other. Baba said, anyone approaching you for anything is due to links of our past lives. By using your power of discrimination if you are convinced that a man is really needy then help him. In case of doubt, route it through Baba. If you wish to give ten rupees to a needy person but are in doubt then, put that in Baba's Donation Box. Let Baba decide this, in case you are not convinced at all then just refuse politely. While doing so never abuse, threaten or misbehave with the beggar. Don't develop negative thoughts about anyone more so the beggars whom destiny has punished enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
