The truth maintains that giving will increase what you possess.
How is this possible?
...we have learned that things but represent the thoughts that make them.

...form in which the thought seems to appear is changed in giving.
Yet it must return to him who gives.
Nor can the form it takes be less acceptable.
It must be more.
