“The biggest problem with poverty is the shame that comes with it. When you give the best you have to someone in need, it translates into something much deeper to the receiver. It means they are worthy. If it’s not good enough for you, it’s not good enough for those in need either. Giving the best you have does more than feed an empty belly – it feeds the soul.”
― Om Swami, The Book of Kindness: How to Make Others Happy and Be Happy Yourself

“It is said that we come with nothing into this world, and take nothing back. But that’s not true. We carry our karma with us. And we leave behind our reputation, our name.”

“And that’s the thing, you see – when I talk about kindness, I’m not simply saying you should be kind to others. That comes a step later. First, you must be grateful to those who are kind to you. No matter how small an act of kindness may be on the other’s part, if you don’t hold back in expressing your gratitude, if you deeply appreciate what they have done or are trying to do, you will be bringing a lifelong positive change in the other person’s life. This will not only help them and yourself, but also the whole world.”
― Om Swami, The Book of Kindness: How to Make Others Happy and Be Happy Yourself
