Talk on Giving money to the homeless.
Dr. Acharya Yogeesh: If you give money to the homeless man or homeless woman, you are adding another homeless person to our society. Instead of giving them money, give them clothes, food and work.
The truth about the homeless is that most of them collect the money you give, that is your hard earned money, and throw parties at night while buying beer and drugs with your money.
Money can make the homeless person go crazy.
What unfortunate, is that the real homeless person may not get money, but the alcoholic and drug addict homeless people do.
Give the homeless work. However, I can guarantee you they'll run away in a week or two. The homeless want easy money.
We, you, are responsible for creating a homeless society.
The government should not allow homeless people to live on the streets. No beggars on the streets. The Indian Government passed a law banning beggars on the streets.
Being a beggar is the worst thing to do.
Some people like to beg God for things. Some prayer is begging. They beg God to heal the sick in their family. If God WAS a person, if he/she will tell you to go get medical insurance and bring the member to the hospital.
The truth is, you need to put efforts in your own life.
The more money you give to the beggars, the homeless, the more homeless people you will create.
Feed them, give them clothes, give them work. Don't be the provider of their alcohol and drug needs.
You may think you are being compassionate, but you are keeping that person homeless and dependent. You may think you are collecting good karma for giving money, but the truth is, you are collecting bad karma for keeping a homeless person on the street.
Help a poor family, adopt an orphan. Be helpful that way.
Know this truth: The homeless people WANT to be homeless.

First Video Description
Do not support the homeless with money. Give the homeless man or woman clothes, work, and food. By giving them money, you support their alcohol and drug addiction and habit.
It is not compassionate to give money to the homeless. You are responsible, if you give money, to adding one more homeless person to the society. Helping the poor with food, clothes, and work is good karma. Giving money to the homeless brings you bad karma. Don't feed their drug addiction.

I must say i totaly agree with you :) Homeless people (MOST OF EM) like 90% are ppl who dont want a house but go out in the streets beggining to get drinks,and other stuff not necesary for living.. they also dont like working.. when u say them why dont they go to work they hit you or swear you:|

@seanjohn151 ~~ What the hell is the matter with you?? Not every person on the street can be summed up by your simplistic logic. Obviously you have Never been out on the street and homeless. Have you ever sat down with these people Long Enough to listen to their story? Sure some of them desire their way of life, but the ones I've reached out to - do not.

Sometimes a life can be completely turned around for the better just by giving COMPASSION.

Yet sounds like you've got it all figured out.

Ehhhh I don't know about this....maybe some people are taking advantage, but there's really a high rate of unemployment right now and people can't find jobs. What are they supposed to do? Everybody needs help sometimes. Maybe they are mentally ill, maybe they DO have a drug/alcohol problem. It's not easy to overcome these things and just get a job! Maybe giving money to people on the streets isn't helpful, but I will not stop having compassion for them. Always give love.

he speaks of true wisdom. i didn't know till this year and also happen to come across this too. over here in the US way too many ppl beg for money and don't deserve or need it.

[jannevellamo]

In my experience homeless people really appreciate a friendly smile and a pat on the shoulder much more than money. Like any human being would. In my country we have this problem of Romanian Gypsies coming over to beg, pick pockets and steal anything that's not made of concrete. Most of the money seems to go to the Gypsy loan sharks, who financed their migration, not food, clothes or education for the children. Do I want to feed a loan shark? I love animals, but not that much.

I never thought of it tha way before. The thing about begging God being similar to begging for money on the street. Powerful.

well said!

[bouhcbeta]

when you give money to a homeless look inside of you for a reason you are doing it.

is it to satisfy your ego? or maybe you feel uncomfortable getting asked for a change and just want to get rid of him and give away your cash, maybe its hard to say 'no'? Most of the time its not real compasion.

I NEVEr give money on the street, for the reasons stated by this smart guy.

The profit based system will perpetuate human death and mysery forever, Google resource based economy

[coit7]

The monetary system is the root cause of all the worlds problemsit creates human Elitism/hierarchy, War, class distinctions, starvation, poverty, scarcity and so much human misery simply over profit, Money, land ownership, politicsthe world needs to wake up and do away with this archaic outdated unintelligent system, resource based economies are the way to go, the world now has the technology to create abundance of food that can feed the entire planet for free
