Our FBA Dharmabyte today is called Dana as Practice. Here Samachitta puts the practice of generosity under the microscope in this engaging talk on the first paramita.

When we perform an act of generosity, what exactly is happening? How does it relate to the development of Wisdom? Is there such a thing as purely mental generosity and how effective is it?

This talk explains the 'why', 'what' and how' of Dana-Paramita.

From the talk Dana - the Emotional Life of the Sangha given at Birmingham Buddhist Centre, 2011.
