Why Feeding the Hungry is a Miracle Practice - Giving Food is the Best of All Charities

An Excerpt from Chapter 38 of the Sri Sai Satcharita (Shirdi Sai Baba's Miracle Text) "Different spiritual practices are prescribed in sacred scriptures for different ages. Penance is recommended for Golden age, knowledge/wisdom for Silver age, Sacrifice for Bronze age and Charity for Dark (present) age. "Of all the charities, giving food is the best one. We are much perturbed when we get no food at noon. Other beings feel similarly under similar circumstances. Knowing this, he who gives food to the poor and hungry, is the best donor or charitable person. "The 'Taittiriya Upanishad' says: 'Food is God; from food all the creatures are born and having been born, by food they live, and having departed, into food again they enter.' "Other kinds of charities are imperfect without this giving of food - Giving food to the hungry is the best of all merits."

"Give food to the hungry, water to the thirsty, and clothes to the naked. Then God will be pleased." - Shirdi Sai Baba
