	Generosity's Perfection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Generosity opens our heart, frees us from attachment and is the basis of all good qualities.
		Generosity is the very first parami, or quality of an awakened mind.
		When our practice of generosity is genuine, when it’s complete, we realize inner spaciousness and peace, and we also learn to extend boundless caring to all living beings.

	Hypatia--Generosity: Between Love and Desire
		However, to the extent that she does point to a generosity of flesh, this indicates an ontology that departs from Sartre's individualism and from a Hegelian ideal of unity and moves beyond the anti-body logic of both.
		While her generosity toward Sartre seems to have no bounds, suggesting as she does that everything she says is already in his work, her generosity toward Merleau-Ponty is of the less desperate kind.
		As generosity maintains alterity and ambiguity in the possibilities it opens, it is not based on an ideal of mutual exchange between equals.

	CFP: NATIONAL: 2004 Generosity Index: Technical Notes: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The Generosity Index (GI) was conceived in 1997 as a concise way to summarize Massachusetts' and New England's greatest problem in philanthropy: that we have the nation's largest gap between our ranks in income and our ranks in charitable giving.
		As we have said from the outset, the Generosity Index is a "crude but telling" indicator; it is not scientific (e.g., economics, sociology) but it is educational, and specifically for donor education.
		Generosity Index: The index is created by comparing the rank of each state's average adjusted gross income (AAGI) to the rank of each state's average itemized charitable deductions (AICD).

	The Encounter between Wonder and Generosity
		Generosity appears to be the converse of wonder, in the sense that it is regarding others as like ourselves and looking for similarity whereas wonder involves regarding others as very different from ourselves in their needs, desires, and interests.
		Generosity can provide the limit that prevents wonder from falling over into exoticizing, crass curiosity, or contempt because generosity is an acceptance of a fundamental sense in which we are all of worth, regardless of the differences that may exist.
		True generosity is a habit that disposes us to have certain types of thoughts, and also a virtue because it is based on and generates wise moral judgments, and it is in this form that it can serve as the basis for an ethical life.

	Generosity
		In practicing generosity with intelligence and openness of heart, we draw closer to the truth of oneness and love, while serving life and the Divine.
		Generosity also lives in the simple giving of our time and attention to others, for example by listening from a place of stillness, compassion, and appreciation.
		No discussion of generosity would be complete without gratitude for the loving generosity of the Divine.

	Generosity
		Generosity can be the first step toward cultivating a nurturing and compassionate heart.
		Through practicing generosity, we can open our hearts a little at a time, discover that we truly do not lose ourselves when we are kind, that we do not grow weak but find strength in it, and learn to overcome our fears of vulnerability.
		Without generosity, it would not be possible to become an enlightened one, a solitary enlightened one, or a worthy saint.

	On Generosity
		Thus, generosity, which ordinarily signifies the virtue of true nobility, is taken generally for the virtue by which we bring ourselves to do actions that are at once elevated and reasonable, for without the light of reason and justice, this elevation is only ambition and vanity.
		However, as false glory is often veiled by a mask that makes it resemble generosity, it is necessary to consider that every action that goes against justice, that is, against the public good, and in a word, all that is contrary to virtue, is not glorious.
		From this we can judge that the principles of generosity are the same as those of justice or piety, whereas self-interest and self-love, when it is badly regulated, are the principles of cowardice.

	Churchlink: Project 21 - Stage 1 - Lesson 15 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The first step in understanding the law of generosity is to see material things as God sees them (Luke 9:25; 12:16-21).
		One of the reasons God places such an emphasis on generosity is because the material lure of this world is a destructive trap.
		Generosity is part of the grace of God that flows into our lives.

		His evergreen, ever existing and ever-growing generosity's example could only be collaborated with a nuclear atom, which increases the longer it stays and the more it collides.
		Generosity and kindness covers such a vast field, and is such an ocean of a subject, that to cover all of its details is an almost impossible task.
		Generosity and kindness don't only mean that you give when you gain, but in fact mean to give when you yourself hardly have anything.

	FaxSheet 10/31/00:Improving the Generosity Rate: Charitable Tax Deduction Would Boost Charitable Giving in Mass. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The state would move from the bottom third to either the middle third or the top third of states in terms of its generosity, and residents would expand their giving by $1.43 billion over the next five years – or by $410 million more than the reduction in tax revenues.
		This argument is based on the greater generosity exhibited by states with income taxes and charitable deductions.
		The Generosity Rate is 8.8 percentage points higher (= 45.4%-36.6%) in states with an income tax and deductibility than in states with an income tax and no deductibility.

	Goodness, Knowledge & Generosity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Remember that we began a few weeks ago talking about “the fruit of the spirit.” The fruit of the spirit could be viewed as “love,” and all of these other qualities that Paul talks about are different characteristics of what that love looks like.
		My Bible, the NRSV, translates the word as “generosity,” but most other translations use the word “goodness.” In fact, almost every English translation beginning with the King James Version used the word “goodness” until 1993.
		Generosity, from a Christian perceptive, involves how we live our whole life – “lifestyle stewardship” as some of you who have been around here a long time might remember.

		It wouldn't be that terrible were we not speaking about the loss of life and the causing of permanent disability; it wouldn't be that terrible had that same stupid rule worked on other levels of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, particularly with regard to the question of the settlements.
		The percentages of this generosity differed from one political analyst to another: Some spoke of the Palestinians being asked to relinquish only 5 percent of the area of the West Bank, while others spoke of 9 percent and even more.
		Even if the "Israeli generosity" were to mean remaining with only Ma'aleh Adumim, Ariel and the Etzion Bloc, the roads to these settlements would be patrolled by Israeli soldiers.

	The Generosity Index
		Such is the case with the "Generosity Index" which was released by the The Massachusetts Catalogue for Philanthropy on November 5th.
		As can be seen, of the twenty states with the best generosity indices, all but 4 had LESS than 30% of all taxpayers claim such deductions.
		The most direct way to calculate a generosity index would be to divide the average charitable contribution by the average AGI of all taxpayers in that state.

		Subtract 5 from 50 and you get a generosity gap of 45, the highest number in the country -- and so Mississippi is ranked as the most generous state in the nation.
		To be fair, one of the first people to admit the shortcomings of the Generosity Index is the creator of the index himself: George McCully, president of the Catalog for Philanthropy.
		McCully calls his Generosity Index "crude but telling." He's right about the crude part, although the "telling" remains to be seen.

		Jesus' parable of the vineyard owner who keeps hiring more and more day labourers to help him finish his harvest, and who at the end pays those who were hired last the same amount that he pays those whom he hired first, makes us feel slightly uneasy.
		The secretary who comes in early, works through lunch, stays late, and takes work home is given the same rise as the airhead, drop-out broom pusher who is there because his father knows the tea lady of the head of the Department.
		Who would have thought that generosity, random acts of kindness, or a largesse of heart would have ever been resented and attacked as unjust and unfair.

		The spirit of generosity is the true core of this project, not a particular moral code, ours or anyone else's.

	King of Peace - Stingy Generosity
		Those two verses are the essence of God’s stingy generosity, “You meet of anything you want, oh yeah, except the fruit of that one tree.” As the story goes, it is the only tree from which Adam and Eve ever ate when they were in the garden.
		God’s stingy generosity was fulfilled in that the workers who arrived early were given no more than they needed to get them through the long day of work, but they were also given no less than they needed.
		Out in the streets, the people who are not working don’t know how they are going to eat that night, while in the vineyard, the workers know that the Master of the Harvest is taking care of their needs.
