[Generosity Traditions Around the 🌎]: Anna Dāna

One of the most common forms of giving in Hinduism is anna dana, the sharing of food with others.This tradition calls Hindus to share their food with any unexpected visitors that may arrive at their home. In orthodox practice, homeowners cannot partake of food until it has been offered to guests or mendicants, dependents, deities and ancestors. On religious and other important occasions, anna dana may be undertaken on a large scale. Some Hindus organize a special meal for the needy or donate to a charitable cause in
memory of the deceased. #GivingTuesday #GivingTuesdayIndia
