Ask nothing; want nothing in return.

Ask nothing; want nothing in return. Give what you have to give; it will come back to you -- but do not think of that now. Learn that the whole of life is giving, that nature will force you to give. So, give willingly. Sooner or later you will have to give up. With clenched hands, you want to take. But nature puts a hand on your throat and makes your hands open...The moment you say, "I will not", the blow comes; you are hurt. Ask, therefore, nothing in return; but the more you give, the more will come to you.
