Dāna (Devanagari: दान) and Pali word that connotes the virtue of generosity, charity or giving of alms in Indian philosophies.It is alternatively transliterated as daana.

In Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism, dāna is the practice of cultivating generosity. It can take the form of giving to an individual in distress or need.^[5] It can also take the form of philanthropic public projects that empower and help many.

According to historical records, dāna is an ancient practice in Prabuddha Bharatian traditions.

Dāna is any form of giving.

In
Buddhist culture Dana (donation) is called one of the major shila where
person can get a certain state of mind by practicing Dana.

Dana
is one of the ancient lineage comes from Buddhas time. Many Great
King offers various required necessities of Buddhist monk. which was
called Dana.

Dāna as a formal religious act is directed specifically to a monastic
or spiritually-developed person. In Buddhist thought, it has the effect
of purifying and transforming the mind of the giver.

Generosity developed through giving leads to experience of material wealth and possibly being reborn in happy states. In the Pāli Canon’s Dighajanu Sutta, generosity (denoted there by the Pāli word cāga, which can be synonymous with dāna)
is identified as one of the four traits conditioning happiness and
wealth in the next life. Conversely, lack of giving leads to unhappy
states and poverty.

Dāna leads to one of the pāramitās or “perfections”, the dānapāramitā. This can be characterized by unattached and unconditional generosity, giving and letting go.

Buddhists believe that giving without seeking anything in return
leads to greater spiritual wealth. Moreover, it reduces the acquisitive
impulses that ultimately lead to continued sufferingfrom egotism.

Buddhism’s Perfection of Giving

By Barbara O’Brien

Updated April 28, 2019

Giving
is essential to Buddhism. Giving includes charity, or giving material
help to people in want. It also includes giving spiritual guidance to
those who seek it and loving kindness to all who need it. However, one’s
motivation for giving to others is at least as important as what is
given.

Motivation

What
is the right or wrong motivation? In sutra 4:236 of the Anguttara
Nikaya, a collection of texts in the Sutta-Pitaka, lists a number of
motivations for giving. These include being shamed or intimidated into
giving; giving to receive a favor; giving to feel good about yourself.
These are impure motivations.

The
Buddha taught that when we give to others, we give without expectation
of reward. We give without attaching to either the gift or the
recipient. We practice giving to release greed and self-clinging.

Some
teachers propose that giving is good because it accrues merit and
creates karma that will bring future happiness. Others say that even
this is self-clinging and an expectation of reward. In many schools,
people are encouraged to dedicate merit to the liberation of others.

Paramitas

Giving
with pure motivation is called dana paramita (Sanskrit), or dana parami
(Pali), which means “perfection of giving.” There are lists of
perfections that vary somewhat between Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism,
but dana, giving, is the first perfection on every list. The perfections
might be thought of as strengths or virtues that lead one to
enlightenment.

Theravadin monk and scholar Bhikkhu Bodhi said,

“The practice of giving is universally recognized as one of the most
basic human virtues, a quality that testifies to the depth of one’s
humanity and one’s capacity for self-transcendence. In the teaching of
the Buddha, too, the practice of giving claims a place of special
eminence, one which singles it out as being in a sense the foundation
and seed of spiritual development.”

The Importance of Receiving

It’s
important to remember that there is no giving without receiving, and no
givers without receivers. Therefore, giving and receiving arise
together; one is not possible without the other. Ultimately, giving and
receiving, giver and receiver, are one. Giving and receiving with this
understanding is the perfection of giving. As long as we are sorting
ourselves into givers and receivers, however, we are still falling short
of dana paramita.

Zen
monk Shohaku Okumura wrote in Soto Zen Journal that for a time he
didn’t want to receive gifts from others, thinking that he should be
giving, not taking. “When we understand this teaching in this way, we
simply create another standard to measure gaining and losing. We are
still in the framework of gaining and losing,” he wrote. When giving is
perfect, there is no loss and no gain.

In
Japan, when monks carry out traditional alms begging, they wear huge
straw hats that partly obscure their faces. The hats also prevent them
from seeing the faces of those giving them alms. No giver, no receiver;
this is pure giving.

Give Without Attachment

We are advised to give without attaching to either the gift or the recipient. What does that mean?

In
Buddhism, to avoid attachment doesn’t mean we can’t have any friends.
Quite the opposite, actually. Attachment can only happen when there are
at least two separate things — an attacher, and something to attach to.
But, sorting the world into subjects and objects is a delusion.

Attachment,
then, comes from a habit of mind that sorts the world into “me” and
“everything else.” Attachment leads to possessiveness and a tendency to
manipulate everything, including people, to your own personal advantage.
To be non-attached is to recognize that nothing is really separate.

This
brings us back to the realization that the giver and the receiver are
one. And the gift isn’t separate, either. So, we give without
expectation of reward from the recipient — including a “thank you” —
and we place no conditions on the gift.

A Habit of Generosity

Dana
paramita is sometimes translated “perfection of generosity.” A generous
spirit is about more than just giving to charity. It is a spirit of
responding to the world and giving what is needed and appropriate at the
time.

This
spirit of generosity is an important foundation of practice. It helps
tear down our ego-walls while it relieves some of the sufferings of the
world. And it also includes being grateful for the generosity shown to
you. This is the practice of dana paramita.

Food Offerings in Buddhism

Feeding the Buddha

By Barbara O’Brien

Updated January 04, 2019

Offering
food is one of the oldest and most common rituals of Buddhism. Food is
given to monks during alms rounds and also ritually offered to tantric
deities and hungry ghosts. Offering food is a meritorious act that also
reminds us not to be greedy or selfish.

Offering Alms to Monks

The
first Buddhist monks did not build monasteries. Instead, they were
homeless mendicants who begged for all their food. Their only
possessions were their robe and begging bowl.

Today,
in many predominately Theravada countries like Thailand, monks still
rely on receiving alms for most of their food. The monks leave the
monasteries early in the morning. They walk single file, oldest first,
carrying their alms bowls in front of them. Laypeople wait for them,
sometimes kneeling, and place food, flowers or incense sticks in the
bowls. Women must be careful not to touch the monks.

The
monks do not speak, even to say thank you. The giving of alms is not
thought of as charity. The giving and receiving of alms create a
spiritual connection between the monastic and lay communities. Laypeople
have a responsibility to support the monks physically, and the monks
have an obligation to support the community spiritually.

The
practice of begging for alms has mostly disappeared in Mahayana
countries, although in Japan monks periodically do takuhatsu, “request”
(taku) “with eating bowls” (hatsu). Sometimes monks recite sutras in
exchange for donations. Zen monks may go out in small groups, chanting
“Ho” (dharma) as they walk, signifying that they are bringing the
dharma.

Monks
practicing takuhatsu wear large straw hats that partly obscure their
faces. The hats also prevent them from seeing the faces of those giving
them alms. There is no giver and no receiver; just giving and receiving.
This purifies the act of giving and receiving.

Other Food Offerings

Ceremonial
food offerings also are a common practice in Buddhism. The precise
rituals and doctrines behind them differ from one school to another.
Food may be simply and silently left on an altar, with a small bow, or
elaborate chants and full prostrations might accompany the offering.
However, it is done, as with the alms given to monks, offering food on
an altar is an act of connecting with the spiritual world. It is also a
means to release selfishness and open the heart to the needs of others.

It
is a common practice in Zen to make food offerings to the hungry
ghosts. During formal meals during sesshin, an offering bowl will be
passed or brought to each person about to partake of the meal. Everyone
takes a small piece of food from his bowl, touches it to the forehead,
and places it in the offering bowl. The bowl is then ceremonially placed
on the altar.

Hungry
ghosts represent all of our greed and thirst and clinging, which bind
us to our sorrows and disappointments. By giving away something that we
crave, we unbind ourselves from our own clinging and neediness to think
of others.

Eventually, the offered food is left out for birds and wild animals.

Charity in Buddhism

From the Perfection of Giving to Engaged

Theravada Buddhism

By Barbara O’Brien

Updated August 05, 2018

In
the West, we often associate religion, Christianity especially, with
organized charity. With its emphasis on compassion, one would think
charity is important to Buddhism also, but we don’t hear much about it.
In the West, there’s a common assumption that Buddhism doesn’t “do”
charity, in fact, and instead encourages followers to withdraw from the
world and ignore the suffering of others. Is that true?

Buddhists
argue that the reason one doesn’t hear so much about Buddhist charity
is that Buddhism doesn’t seek publicity for charity. Giving, or
generosity, is one of the Perfections (paramitas) of Buddhism, but to
be “perfect” it must be selfless, without expectation of reward or
praise. Even practicing charity “to feel good about myself” is
considered an impure motivation. In some schools of Buddhism monks
asking for alms wear large straw hats that partly obscure their faces,
signifying there is neither giver nor receiver, but just the act of
giving.

Alms and Merit

It
has long been the case that laypeople have been encouraged to give alms
to monks, nuns, and temples, with the promise that such giving will
make merit for the giver. The Buddha spoke of such merit in terms of
spiritual maturity. Developing the selfless intention of doing good for
others brings one closer to enlightenment.

Still,
“making merit” does sound like a reward, and it is common to think that
such merit will bring good fortune to the giver. To get around such
expectation of reward, it is common for Buddhists to dedicate the merit
of a charitable act to someone else, or even to all beings.

Charity in Early Buddhism

In
the Sutta-pitaka the Buddha spoke of six kinds of people in particular
need of generosity — recluses or hermits, people in religious orders,
the destitute, travelers, the homeless and beggars. Other early sutras
speak of caring for the sick and people who are needy because of
disasters. Throughout his teaching, the Buddha was clear that one should
not turn away from suffering but do whatever can be done to relieve it.

Still,
through most of Buddhist history charity per se was an individual
practice. Monks and nuns performed many acts of kindness, but monastic
orders generally didn’t function as charities in an organized way except
in times of great need, such as after natural disasters.

Engaged Buddhism

Taixu
(Tai Hsu; 1890-1947) was a Chinese Linji Chan Buddhist monk who
proposed a doctrine that came to be called “humanistic Buddhism.” Taixu
was a modernist reformer whose ideas refocused Chinese Buddhism away
from rituals and rebirth and toward addressing human and social
concerns. Taixu influenced new generations of Chinese and Taiwanese
Buddhists who expanded humanistic Buddhism into a force for good in the
world.

Humanistic
Buddhism inspired the Vietnamese monk Thich Nhat Hanh to propose
Engaged Buddhism. Engaged Buddhism applies Buddhist teaching and
insights to social, economic, environmental and other issues troubling
the world. A number of organizations work actively with Engaged
Buddhism, such as the Buddhist Peace Fellowship and the International
Network of Engaged Buddhists.

Buddhist Charities Today

Today there are many Buddhist charities, some local, some international. Here are just a few:

Tzu Chi Foundation — Buddhist Compassionate Relief: Established in
1966 by Dharma Master Cheng Yen, a Taiwanese nun, Tzu Chi today has more
than 500 offices in 50 countries and regions. Its millions of
volunteers around the globe have built schools, offered medical care,
and responded to disasters in 87 different countries, including the
United States.

Buddhist Global Relief: Founded by the American Theravadin monk
Bikkhu Bodhi, BGR provides food aid to the hungry and malnourished,
promotes ecologically sustainable agriculture, and supports education
and other opportunities for girls and women.

Cambodia AIDS Project: This chaplaincy program supports AIDS,
tuberculosis, cancer and other patients too poor to access traditional
spiritual resources. The program also provides material support for
caregivers, the elderly, the disabled, pregnant and breastfeeding women,
prisoners, and others without access to the resources they need.

Lotus Outreach International: Lotus outreach provides education,
health, and economic opportunity programs to over 30,000 women and
children in India and Cambodia.

The Buddha Jyoti Himalayan Youth Club Nepal: Among other projects,
this group operates Maitri Griha, a home for mentally handicapped
children.

Health Risks of Public Swimming Pools

The
Model Aquatic Health Code, produced by the Centers for Disease Control
or CDC, the National Swimming Pool Foundation and a host of swimming
pool manufacturers and public health representatives established
standards for swimming pool maintenance to avoid public health hazards.
The recommendations, once approved by the concerned agencies and
implemented, will improve the water safety for the nearly 339 million
Americans who visit public pools each year.

Legionnaires’ Disease

Legionnaires’
Disease, also known as Legionellosis, is caused by a bacterium. Water
and vapor provide the medium for its easy transmission. The disease took
the name of the organization impacted by an outbreak at its 1976
convention in Philadelphia. Legionnaires’ Disease, a bacterial lung
disease with symptoms similar to pneumonia, is linked to swimming pools
and to the moisture created in enclosed public pools, according to the
CDC. Transmission occurs through breathing in the bacteria-infected
vapors, not by human contact. Treatment of the disease includes
antibiotic drugs, although many infected people recover without any
treatment. The pool environment must be thoroughly and regularly cleaned
to remove the bacteria and risk of infection.

The Cryptosporidiosis Parasite

The
CDC reports that cryptosporidiosis, caused by an infection by the
“Cryptosporidium” parasite, was at record levels in 2010 due to “the
high resistance to chlorine disinfection” and the easy transmission of
the parasite. The agency recommends preventive procedures for public
swimming and wading pools to avoid widespread outbreaks. Public health
education of pool managers, parents, childcare professionals and
community health departments is crucial for avoiding the health risks.
The prevention program involves educating all of the partners in
transmission; alternative disinfection systems, such as use of ozone and
ultraviolet light; and proper hand-and-foot washing techniques.

The Influenza Virus

Properly
maintained public swimming pools pose little risk for influenza
infection, but improperly maintained pools that fail to meet the
CDC-recommended free chlorine levels of one to three parts per million
offer a moist environment for the influenza virus. While recent health
concerns include the swine, or H1N1, influenza virus, all flu viruses
are spread in the same manner. Infection occurs via personal contact or
by contact with a pool chair or hard surface also touched by a person
infected with the flu virus, according to the CDC. Avoid touching the
mouth, eyes or nose to minimize the risk of influenza while at the
public pool.

Athlete’s Foot

Athlete’s
foot is an infection by fungus, tinea pedis, that creates a fungal
growth and additional skin cell growth on the basal, or top-most, layer
of the skin. Pieces of discarded skin infected with fungus fall from
swimmers’ feet, creating an opportunity to infect other pool visitors.
The Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists reports that athlete’s foot
is “…highly contagious and can spread to anywhere on your skin.”
Wearing sandals while walking around the pool deck discourages
infection. Drying the skin thoroughly after swimming also discourages
athlete’s foot growth.

Things to consider before donating to an NGO

James Russell Miller once said, “Nothing else in all life is such a maker of joy and cheer as the privilege of doing good”.

It is indeed a great humane gesture to give. It is a way to express
generosity and kindness towards the less privileged sections of the
society to fulfill our social conscience.

Donating for a noble cause can be the most gratifying feeling but
many a times we are prone to get hysterical and can rush into the
process without checking some significant details about the NGO/
nonprofit.

So if you’re here reading this article, pause for a bit before
parting ways with your hard-earned money. We want to make sure you
understand that there are certain things which need to be kept in mind
before you make a donation in India.

Here are the things you need to check for, before making your contribution:

Is the NGO/Non Profit registered?

The first step you need to take is to look for a proper registration.
Registered NGOs in India are eligible to obtain a legal status, seek
assistance from government agencies, contract funds and support from the
relevant departments.

The NGOs registered under the FCRA (Foreign Contribution Registration
Act), are eligible to get donations from foreign sources implying a
great financial stability of the nonprofit.

Does it provide a Safe Payment Method?

The process one follows to make a Donation for NGO is
very important. After all, as a donor, you would like to see that the
maximum part of your contribution reaches the target NGO.

It is mostly safe to avoid making a donation in cash, and instead
trying other options such as cheques, or even better, online payments.
The donations of Narayan Seva Sansthan are made online through the SSL
gateway ensuring security and privacy to the donors.

Do they provide reliable Accountability & Transparency?

In recent times, a couple of NGOs have been caught in scams,
concealing illegal ways where the donor funds were not being used for
the right social cause. Therefore, the nonprofit’s past achievements and
financial position over the years is a must to verify before getting
involved.

Check the NGO’s website, social media presence, ongoing campaigns,
contact information, on-ground work, financial details, tax status and
other relevant features to decide which NGO you want to give your money
to. A reliable NGO is always open to any form of Public Scrutiny.

Are the donations Tax Deductible?

Be aware of the fact that the donations for certain NGO’s like
Narayan Seva Sansthan are exempted from taxes under section 80G of the
Income tax.

So, if your philanthropic organization provides you Tax free donation then it’s a cherry on the cake.

Also, not all donations are eligible for Tax deduction, so you are advised to go through the rules before making a decision.

The bottom Line:

If you know a reliable charitable organization and want to support it, do the above research and make the best decisions.

Lastly, you can also try donating through ways other than money, such as getting involved by devoting your time and skills.

Narayan Seva Sansthan is widely hailed as the Top Charity Organization of India and
has improved the lives of millions by their cause of providing free
treatments and surgeries, skill development, mass wedding ceremonies and
what not; for the physically impaired individuals.

Provide nutritious food for hungry children, now

The
country has seen large scale devastation as an effect of Covid-19. The
pandemic has led to massive losses of income and had a long-lasting
impact on the economy. Poor daily wager families who were already
struggling to make ends meet are now starving. And the worst-hit are
their children - who need not just full stomachs but proper nutrition to
grow.

More than a third of the world’s malnourished children
live in India. Now, due to the pandemic, the numbers are only rising.
95.1 million children are deprived of midday meals at school during the
pandemic. The State of the World’s Children Report 2019 by UNICEF
reckons that 69% of deaths among children under five years of age can be
attributed to malnutrition in India. It also estimates that every
second child up to five years of age is affected by some form of
malnutrition. That is just an indication of the level of risk children
in this country face in this crisis.

Through Mission: No Child
Hungry, our NGO partners will be distributing monthly nutrition kits to
ensure India’s poor children are not malnourished. The kits will
contain immunity-boosting formulas, multi-vitamins, iron-rich food
items, and food with high protein content including dates, Horlicks,
chickpea/green gram/cowpea, ragi flour, etc.

Provide
nutrition for the development and growth of all children. All it takes
is ₹1,000 per month to safeguard one child from malnutrition.

*Strict
adherence to social distancing rules are being followed by the NGOs for
the distribution. Door to door distribution will be done to ensure zero
public gathering.

Once you donate, we will send you the name and photo of the child you are supporting.

COVID-19 update

Covid-19
has presented new set of challenges before everybody. Countries across
the globe have been tested at multiple levels. This has been a crisis
like never before.

You are facing hardships economically, socially, mentally and
psychologically. For your family and friends, staying inside homes
during the lockdown was a safer option and we all did practice social
distancing diligently.

But India’s invisible population – the unsheltered population, the
homeless were at an increased risk as they faced multiple hardships. As
the number of cases surged, Uday Foundation continued providing relief
materials to the homeless during the pandemic.

Uday Foundation worked tirelessly throughout the lockdown period.
Items that were distributed include dry ration, cooked meals, clothes,
life-saving medicines, hygiene kits, masks, sanitizers, gloves, sanitary
napkins for women and girls and essential items to the needy. Our food
donation drive did not stop for a even a single day. We know healthcare
burden is increasing and so is the burden for caregivers.

Uday Foundation supported the most vulnerable population – the
migrant workers who were forced to leave cities for lack of money and
resources. Millions witnessed the great Indian migration through
television and other social media channels.

We tried and eased their pain and struggle by being part of their

Best 360 cameras that’ll help you capture life in every direction.

If you’re planning to buy a 360-degree camera, you should be clear about what are you going to use it for. Some models of such camera feature rugged, all-weather builds and also fit solidly in the action cam category.

The Best 360-Degree Camera

Updated March 4, 2020

We’ve updated the Why get a 360 camera section to include info about why many people are using 360 cameras instead of action cameras.

After
70-plus hours of researching over nearly three years, including days of
hands-on testing for this update and two months using our main pick,
we’ve found that the Insta360 One X
is the best 360 camera. It produces attractive, high-resolution,
360-degree, fully spherical images and videos that you can scroll around
to show a view of every direction surrounding the camera, plus unique
non-360 “FreeCapture” 1080p videos that show just the most interesting
sections of your 360 content. The camera is small and easy to use and
has excellent apps for your phone and computer.

Our pick

Insta360 One X

The best 360-degree camera

Great image quality, thoughtful design, and a fantastic and feature-filled app make the One X the best all-around 360 camera.

$800* from Amazon

$434 from Insta360

*At the time of publishing, the price was $400.

The Insta360 One X
is the camera that does everything well. The specs on the One X read
like a 360 camera wishlist: 5.7K resolution (the highest you can get in
this price range), removable battery, on-camera display, Bluetooth,
Wi-Fi, an app with advanced editing methods, and more. It’s as if
Insta360 looked at everything people wanted in a 360 camera, and stuffed
it all into the One X. Even better, it performs as well as you’d hope
looking at the features list. The camera isn’t waterproof, but two
waterproof cases are available, along with numerous other accessories.

Runner-up

Ricoh Theta V

Fewer features but great image quality

Easy to use with great image quality and 360 stitching performance with photos and videos.

$380* from Best Buy

$377 from Amazon

May be out of stock

*At the time of publishing, the price was $377.

Though
it lacks some of the advanced features of the Insta360 One X like
robust image stabilization, a removable battery, and 5.7K video, the Ricoh Theta V
is a solid alternative if our main pick is sold out. The Theta V’s
simple design belies the complexity within, offering high-quality images
and videos that look more natural and immersive than those taken by
most other cameras. Though its resolution isn’t as high as that of some
others, the quality of its lenses and image sensors let it take
excellent photos and videos.

Upgrade pick

Garmin Virb 360

Rugged, waterproof, and stabilized video

This waterproof and rugged action cam just happens to be a 360 camera, too.

$800 from Amazon

If you’re looking for something you can take surfing, swimming, mountain biking, or otherwise action cam-y, the Garmin Virb 360
is waterproof to 33 feet (10 meters), records 5.7K video, and has a
number of cool editing features. It’s significantly more expensive than
our other picks, but offers a lot more for people looking for a 360
action cam. While the similar GoPro Fusion has a bit better image
quality, it is significantly more difficult to use and live with. So for
most people, the Garmin is the better option.
