Saattvika Daana...

  SAATVIKA DAANA A Daana offered with the sole intention to please the Lord is Saatwika Dana. Thinking should be: I am giving this Dana because it is so prescribed in the Shastra, that the Lord will be pleased. Saatwika Dana is the one offered unconditionally to a worthy person at the appropriate place and at appropriate time. A Dana becomes Saatwika if it is offered without expecting anything in return. If a gift is given to a person because he had helped you earlier, it does not come under Saatwika Dana. It is just clearing an old debt. Saatwika Dana brings Supreme Divine blessings. The material value of the thing offered is only of secondary importance. What is primary in Saatwika Dana is your inner awareness. Totally forget that you are the giver. Also totally forget that so and so individual is the receiver. Both are non-entities. But, then, who is giver and who is the receiver? Sri Krishna! He is the Giver and Receiver also. The giver should forget for a moment about the rece...
