3.75

第五念施者。謂專精念施。所施之上。永無悔心無反報想。快得善利。若人罵毀相加刀杖。當起慈心不興瞋恚。我所施者施意不絕。除諸亂想自致涅槃。不離施念便獲功德是名念施。

"Fifth, mindfulness of giving: single-mindedly contemplate giving. Concerning what is given, there is never regret, nor any thought of repayment; one readily obtains good benefits. If someone reviles and slanders one, or inflicts knives and sticks, one should generate compassion and not give rise to anger; regarding what I give, the intention to give is never broken. Eliminating all distracted thoughts, one reaches nirvāṇa of oneself. Not departing from mindfulness of giving, one promptly obtains merits. This is called mindfulness of giving.
