What does Charity Mean to You?




Guruji, B.K.S. Iyengar is a person who has completely incorporated the eight-limbs of yoga into his daily life.  He has taken the teachings of Patanjali and off the mat and made it a reality in his life.

He lives by the quote,
"Giving does not impoverish, withholding does not enrich."

When asked by Rajvi H. Mehta, "What does charity mean to you?"

Mr. Iyengar replied:

"We should not be narbhakshakas (cannibals). We are human beings, so we should have the qualities to help human beings.  That is what I feel is charity."


What does charity mean to you?

Namaste.
