Jain scriptures are full of stories and sermons explaining the importance of Daan or Donations. A donation, at the physical level, lets you experience the Joy of Giving. At metaphysical level, Daan helps you exercise control over your ‘greed’ which is considered as another form of Himsa (violence). And so, our scriptures have encouraged donations as a means to cultivate the virtue of Ahimsa (non-violence).
