Summary in English

Muni Jayant Kumar who is Media In Charge of Terapanth sect wrote an article in which he explained that for a householder earning is necessary. A monk is entitled to beg as he left his home and doing Sadhana but for a householder it is shameful to beg. Lord Mahavir never barred to earn he mention that keep your desires in limitation and earn with honesty and morality. To help other member of society is duty of a householder but he opined that most of people do this due to selfish reason but few person do it as duty. Helping others is good ideal for householder.

He reminds history that Jain followers in South India helped society as whole and Anna Dan (to give employment and to arrange for food for needy), Osadh Dan (medical assistance), Gyan Daan (Helping in field of education) and Abhay Daan (To make fearless to everyone) were very popular among Jain community
