—Buddha Shakyamuni, Vaccha Sutta
Whoever prevents another from giving a gift creates three obstructions, three impediments. Which three? He creates an obstruction to the merit of the giver, an obstruction to the recipient’s gains, and prior to that he undermines and harms his own merit. Whoever prevents another from giving a gift creates these three obstructions, these three impediments.
