How Generosity Leads to Awakening

Generousity is a fantastic practice to have and it is absolutely essential to develop it. But, in this very life we live in, we continuously fight a battle of survival. A spiritual mind could for one renounce all that one has and live in an eternal state but too much generousity can make the very battle of survival a hard one! I dont know what Jin Pa would say to this being a monk, but for me, a discussion we had a few weeks before seems apt: Be generous and give only when you have much to give and dont give more than what is absolutely essential, both from the standpoint of the giver and the taker. The taker should feel the generousity of the giver (not too much) but the right amount. I know there are many who would curse Bill Gates or Warren Buffett (sometimes including me), but what they are trying to give back has much value because it is generousity targeted at the essential. This is just my 2 cents on how I view generousity; maybe this does not lead to spiritual awakening ;-)
