圣大自在天说道：“噢，女神啊，（亦当施设）栖身之所与会堂，井泉、公共施水处，以及池塘水库；并且一切日常常施之物——尤当先问受者真正所欲，然后施与。”

Educational Q&A
Dharma includes sustained, practical generosity: create and support public amenities (shelters, halls, wells, water-stations, tanks) and give regularly, ideally by first asking what the recipient actually needs—so charity becomes both compassionate and effective.
Maheśvara addresses Devī, listing forms of meritorious giving and public benefaction. The instruction situates dāna not only as personal almsgiving but also as building shared infrastructure that relieves hardship for many.
