Appeal to readers, well-wishers and devout Hindus

Akshayya Trutiya is on 3rd May 2022. It is one of the three and a half auspicious muhurts in Hindu Dharma. The donations given and havans (Ritual of sacrificial fires) performed on this day undeniably yield higher benefits. Many people, therefore, like to donate on this day.

1. Importance of Satpatre daan (Donating to the deserving)

Donating to the deserving is the highest duty of every human being as per Hindu Dharma. Donating to the deserving means donating to a mission associated with Sat (Eternal Truth). Donating begets merits for the donor, and when it is given to the deserving (individual or organisation), besides merits it has spiritual benefits too. You can donate in the following ways on Akshayya Trutiya.

2. Types of donation

2A. Donating money : Presently, Dharma is in a kind of lethargy. Hindus have become unrighteous because they are not provided Dharmashikshan (Education on Dharma). In the absence of appropriate education on Dharma, Hindus have no respect and love for their Dharma. In such a difficult state of Dharma, making efforts to revive Dharma is the need of the hour. Donating to Saints who are propagating Dharma and organisations working for the protection of the Nation and Dharma is the best offering as per the times. Sanatan Sanstha has been creating awareness in people towards matters related to Dharma. Donations to such organisations will certainly be used for the revival of Dharma.

2B. Jnan daan (Spreading knowledge) : Texts published by Sanatan Sanstha on various subjects are an eternal treasure of knowledge. These Texts spread valuable knowledge in simple language and enhance faith of people in Dharma.

The treasure of Texts that impart eternal knowledge of Dharma can be considered the best medium to spread knowledge; therefore, we can earn merits by donating these Texts on the day of Akshayya Trutiya and even get spiritual benefits. These Texts can be donated to relatives, friends, school and college libraries and public libraries. Please visit Sanatan’s website to purchase Texts and Booklets – SanatanShop.com.
