CHARITY TO ISKCON
FUND-RAISING
30 reasons (THIRTY REASONS) why charity to ISKCON is the highest form of charity:
“Whatever is done without faith whether it is sacrifice, charity, austerity, or any other act is useless. It has no value here or hereafter, O Arjuna.” (17.28)
1. Largest book-distribution program for distribution of Bhagavada Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam
“The one who shall propagate this supreme secret philosophy, the transcendental knowledge of the Gita, amongst My devotees, shall be performing the highest devotional service to Me, and shall certainly come to Me. No other person shall do more pleasing service to Me, and no one on earth shall be dearer to Me. (18.68-69)
I promise the study of this sacred dialogue of ours will be equivalent to worshipping Me with knowledge-sacrifice.” (18.70)
“Whoever hears this sacred dialogue with faith and without cavil becomes free from sin, and attains salvation.” (18.71)
1. Nationwide presence and international presence of temples and guesthouses for spiritual tourists
Charity that is given as a matter of duty, to a deserving candidate who does nothing in return, at the right place and time, is considered to be charity in the mode of goodness. (17.20)
Charity in the mode of goodness is the best purifying, beneficial, and righteous act. It equally benefits both the giver and the receiver (MB 13.120.16).
