There are different methods of donating alms.

One of the most sacred is known as tulapurusha. In this, a pair of scales is used. The person who is donating the alms ascends on one side of the scales and gold is placed on the other side until the scales are exactly balanced. This is the amount of gold that has to be donated if punya is to be acquired.

The greatest punya is acquired from donating wealth to brahmanas. Or from providing them with employment.

People do not know that they can become immortal. Immortal we are, but we have been embodied in this material body. Therefore we have to accept mortality, birth and death. This is the beginning of spiritual life. Spiritual life means how to become immortal. They come to ask me, "Sir, do you know some spiritual magic?" All for material benefit.
