"Bhet (charity) is universal love, generosity and benevolence. It is the disposition to think favourably of others and to do good to them. True charity is the desire to be useful to others without thought of recompense or reward. It is love in action and a great purifier of the heart. Charity begins at home, but since the whole world is your home, it should reach abroad also. You are a citizen of the world. Cultivate a generous feeling for the welfare of otehrs". Sri Swami Sivananda.

"For us, the message is: give, give and give. To whom should we give? To the needy, helpless, handicapped, blind, lame, orphaned, sick and unhappy. We have to develop love and compassion for every living being. We have to learn to be generous and give what we have to others. Bhet is offering what we have to those who are in need". Sri Swami Satyananda.
