Description
The best thing we can possibly do for the benefit of all other beings is to free our heart from greed, hatred and delusion, and realize Nibbāna. When we are generous, we generate good karma for ourselves, and at the same time others receive material benefits from our gifts. When we keep precepts, we protect ourselves from creating bad karma, and we give the gift to fearlessness to countless beings. Whenever we reduce toxic emotions like anger or greed, we become less likely to harm anyone, and more capable of truly helping others.
