We all know that it is better to give than receive; what we may not really understand is why this is the case. It's simple, really - the more you give of yourself, the more you will receive. When you give freely and unconditionally, success and abundance will be your reward.
Unconditional givers give because they want to, not because they feel obligated to.
When you give unconditionally, you are putting the law of giving and receiving into action and will reap the benefits by drawing abundance and success to yourself.
The universal Law of Giving and Receiving is both spiritual and scientific.
The Spiritual basis of The Law of Giving and Receiving:
Whatever you sow, you will also reap. -Galatians 6:7
The Scientific basis of The Law of Giving and Receiving:
For every action, there will always be an equal or even opposite reaction -Isaac Newton's Law of Motion.
Reasons People Resist Giving:
People often decide not to give because they think they do not have enough to give. They think that if they give, they will have nothing left. This type of thinking comes from limited thinking and perceptions of lack and scarcity.
From a spiritual perspective, if you do not sow, you will not reap. How can you receive anything, if you never give anything?
From the scientific perspective, if you do nothing, nothing will happen. You must take action for something to occur.
The person that decides not to give for fear of lack or fear of loss, will never gain or grow, but will always remain stagnate, keeping only what they already have and never realizing anything more.
Others will give just a little, again feeling a sense of scarcity - but those who give only a little will get only a little in return.
Still others understand the basis of the law of giving and receiving, but only give with the expectation of getting something in return.
Those who give out of selfishness learn that just as with gravity, you can't really bend the rules of the law of giving. You must give unconditionally to make the law work for you.
Start Giving From the Heart:
When you start living by the principles of the law of giving and receiving, you learn that by giving your life is more, not less abundant. There is a feeling of accomplishment and success which is very exhilarating.
This is nothing short of a spiritual experience. You will begin to feel a kinship with the world around you and develop true empathy with others. This will enable you to truly love others as you love yourself.
You become more sensitive and responsive to the needs of others, this is what enables you to give from the heart.
Your giving will inspire others to follow suit, setting off a self-sustaining cycle of giving.
Giving Produces Spiritual and Personal Growth:
Giving unconditionally leads to personal development and builds your faith in yourself, those around you and the universe as a whole. For some it is a religious experience, but it is undeniably spiritual.
The more you give, the more you receive. You'll see the benefits, which will include love and joy.
