Souls of my city: Alms to sustain life

“One day our soul will leave this body, so it is worthless to have greed for materialistic pleasure. I do ask for money not because I am greedy for it but only to sustain the life that God has gifted me. It’s alright if people these days give money as alms instead of rice and vegetables.
