The Quality Of Not Asking For Alms From Someone Is Doubly Appreciable! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Quality Of Not Asking For Alms From Someone Is Doubly Appreciable!



Considering the future birth and this birth in this world,
It is best to offer what is needed and what is possible
By yourself to someone in a suitable way!

Even if it is not possible for you to do that due to poverty,
The quality of not asking for alms in your favour
From someone is doubly appreciable than offering!
