Selflessness

Yajna-shishtashinah santo mucyante sarva-kilbishaih, bhunjate te tv agham papa ye pacanty atma-karanat

The spiritually-minded, who eat food that is first offered in sacrifice, are released from all kinds of sin. Others, who cook food for their own enjoyment, verily eat only sin.

Datavyam iti yad danam diyate 'nupakarine, deshe kale cha patre cha tad danam sattvikam smritam

Charity given to a worthy person simply because it is right to give, without consideration of anything in return, at the proper time and place—such charity is of the nature of goodness.
