Couple of years ago, there was a phase in my life where I was not making any good money for myself. This was something that kept bothering me as I did not know what to do about the same.
Then someone happened to tell me about the DSY(Dharma StambhYojna) Schemeof the Art of Living .The goal of this scheme is to effectively channel monetary resources, from the individuals who are willing to contribute, to the service projects in the field,where their contribution can have the most beneficial impact on society. I felt that even though I am not making money,I want to contribute to this good cause. So I did give my contribution to this scheme in the form of cheques of a certain fixed amount.
Just after that ,work started coming my way and I started making money.You could call this a coincidence if you like , but for me it was much more . It was a sign,a miracle.It clearly proved to me that if you give to society,it gives back to you. The following year, I doubled the amount. And work has just kept increasing and growing ever since. There’s no looking back now.
I feel, the sum of money that I contribute towards the DSY Scheme, is miniscule in comparison to what I get back. It’s not like I give with the intention of getting back though. It’s just so that I too can contribute to a great cause in a small way.
I feel it is really important for each one of us to share our privileges ,our wealth with those who are less privileged.It is important to contribute to the upliftment of society .That society that we are all a part of .It is our very duty. If we do not take up responsibility then who will?
Also,contributing to the DSYScheme,for me, is charity in its purest form, as I can be sure that the money I donate will be used for a noble cause only.
