God once asked his faithful servants a perplexing question: *“Who will lend me a Beautiful Loan Which I will double And multiply many times?”* The servants looked hither and thither and at each other in puzzlement: *“What could we possibly lend to The Creator Of mankind and of the unseen Of the Earth and of the Heavens And everything in between?”* But one among them wept in tranquil delight For he understood what was being asked: *It is the act of giving without expectation From ones material wealth, From ones precious time, From ones accrued knowledge, To alleviate the suffering of others*.

A Beautiful Loan
God once asked his faithful servants a perplexing question: *“Who will lend me a Beautiful Loan Which I will double And multiply many times?”* The servants looked hither and thither and at each other in puzzlement: *“What could we possibly lend to The Creator Of mankind and of the unseen Of the Earth and of the Heavens And everything in between?”* But one among them wept in tranquil delight For he understood what was being asked: *It is the act of giving without expectation From ones material wealth, From ones precious time, From ones accrued knowledge, To alleviate the suffering of others*.
