I have heard a lot of times people saying that we should donate a few percentage from our income for charity but apart from this being a noble cause no one really knows what is the reason behind it. Recently I read a book on our cultural practices and got to know that the reason behind this is while earning money for our bread & butter sometimes knowingly or unknowingly we indulge into false practices, this makes the money that we are earning impure.

If we donate some amount of money to someone who is needy it really helps and also the sin attached to such earning gets neutral. Thus it is also mentioned in our puranas also that we should donate for charity.

बढ़िया प्रस्तुति. हमें आशा है आगे भी ऐसी जानकारियाँ मिलती रहेंगी. वैसे हमारे धर्म ग्रंथों में भी दान के महत्व को बताया गया है. वेदों में दान न देने वाले मनुष्यों की घोर निंदा की गई है. लेकिन नेहा जी दान देने से पहले हमें यह सुनिश्चित अवश्य कर लेना चाहिए की दान सही व्यक्ति को दिया जाए. जो दान को सही कार्यो में लगा सके. तभी दान के पुण्य का सही फ़ल मिल पाता है.
