'Someone who gave to me made me happy when I had nothing; I give to make others happy...' By the age of 25, Dr Achyuta Samanta had established KIIT, a globally recognized university, and KISS, a tuition-free residential school offering holistic education to tribal children, all from a humble two-room apartment-his way of giving back to society. In Art of Giving, Dr Samanta explores the universal concept of giving across religious and cultural divides. Drawing from his personal journey of struggle, deprivation and eventual triumph, he emphasizes that true wealth lies not in material possessions but in the act of giving-whether through tangible resources or intangible gestures of kindness. From the importance of self-love to the impact of giving on mental health, this book offers practical insights for cultivating compassion in every aspect of life. Dr Samanta's vision extends beyond individual fulfilment to encompass societal transformation, urging readers to embrace the Art of Giving as a fundamental value for building a more empathetic and harmonious world.
