You Can Give Selflessly, Even After Death
there is love overflowing, giving is natural. For example, a mother loves her child and hence giving is effortless. The context of living is learning to love and learning to love is activated when one learns to give. But one's giving should come from the context of enhancing others' life. From that perception organ donation is giving life to someone even when one is about to die. Such a death is a purest form of giving. If you have pledged your organs, then one's death is a continuity of life. Thus the continuity of giving happens as an expression of one's love to contribute in the lives of people who badly need a life-supporting organ. He gives not the best who gives the most; he gives the most who gives the best. I have pledged my organs to be donated after death. People ask me, does your religion permit it? As a Hindu, there is no obstacle to giving away one's body as in any case one's body will be either buried or burnt after death. Also, no religion will object to organ donation as a part of contribution to others' life. I have also pledged to motivate people to change their mindset about organ donation, especially when a brain death happens. Life is unpredictable and death can happen any moment. Just feelthejoy of giving life at the time of your death. I met a person in a flight few years back who requested me to empower others to give, especially organs, in the event of brain death. I am thankful to that person but apart from organ donation, one also has to have and give clarity when one is alive. Lots of us are blessed to have all organs intact but our mind is constantly worrying. Sukha person is slowly killing himself through worry, fear, ego, jealousy... despite having all vital organs working. So learn to give not only organs of your body but also learn the clarity to be grateful for what you have. Why waste your life with the ego and worry? I have heard of a young girl upset with her father for he was not rich when he was dying. The father at the time of death wrote to the daughter, "Forgive me that I did not leave enough money for you at my death. “When the daughter applied for a job in a big firm, at the intertie MD asked her, "What is your She replied "Vinutha Rao. “He webby surprise and mentioned to other father was responsible for being the MD of the company to and he did respect talent and receipt in my case. His honesty was a great blessing." Vinutha Rao was appointed innately based on merit and when retired, he recommended her to MD. Then she realised honesty is wealth. Her father had left the we honesty. Learn to give and purify life.
