Question

18．Generosity and kindness does not mean that you give only when you have a lot or after fulfilling all your needs，but in fact you can still give when you yourself are struggling．Generosity literally means willingness and liberty in giving away one's own money，time，talent，etc．sincerely without any personal gain as shown in the following story．
Mahatma Gandhi went from city to city，village to village collecting funds for the Charkha Sangh．During one of his tours he addressed a meeting in Orissa．After his speech a poor old lady got up．She was gone with age，her hair was grey and her clothes were in rags．The volunteers tried to stop her，but she fought her way to the place where Mahatma Gandhi was sitting．
"I must see him，"she insisted．She went up to Mahatma Gandhi and touched his feet．Then from the folds of her sari（卷布），she brought out a copper coin and placed it at his feet．Mahatma Gandhi picked up the copper coin and put it away carefully．The Charkha Sangh funds were under the charge of Jamnalal Bajaj．He asked Mahatma Gandhi for the coin but Mahatma Gandhi refused．
"I keep cheques worth thousands of rupees （盧比） for the Charkha Sangh，"Jamnalal Bajaj said laughingly，"yet you won't trust me with a copper coin．""This copper coin is worth much more than those thousands，"Mahatma Gandhi said．"If a man has one hundred thousand rupees and he gives away a thousand or two，it doesn't mean much．""But this coin was perhaps all that the poor lady possessed．She gave me all she had．That was very generous of her．What a great sacrifice she made．That is why I value this copper coin more than ten millions of rupees．"
