Radhekrishna, Charitable Trusts, etc !! There are many hospitals, old age homes and similar charitable foundations meant for distributing food,education and medical treatment free to the poor. In actual,all these charitable trusts are formed only for the purpose of converting black into white & for higher elevation in life.There are many charitable foundations which offer their gifts to institutions where sense gratification(satisfying themselves) goes on. Such charities are not recommended.Charity performed with the expectation of some return, or with a desire for fruitive results, or in a grudging mood, is said to be charity in the mode of passion, which is adharma.People are very much inclined to feed the poor with sumptuous food, but it can be done in a little different way, that the foodstuff offered to adorable krishna, prasada, that distribution foodstuff is good. Ordinarily, that is punya, pious activities, but when it is connection with Krishna(bhagvan), this is called yajna. Dravya-yajna. To distribute food and cloth, that is called dravya-yajna, but yajna can be said when it is done, dovetailing the activities with Krishna consciousness. That is yajna, like ISKCON is doing, which are running many Gau seva & bonafide trusts & also teaches Sanatan-dharma. Yajna means Krishna.Yajnarthe karmano nyatra loko yam karma-bandhanah [Bg. 3.9]. Adopt Krishna Consciousness Think about it, Again & Again Think About it !!
