My Saturday Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is on the Akankha Sutta. Here Buddha addresses the assembled sangha on the wish to be helpful to others.

The Buddha also teaches that developing awakening within The Eightfold Path carries responsibilities of behavior and Dhamma practice.
“If your wish is to be held dear by your sangha, to be respected and inspiring to them, listen closely to my words. If your wish is that the gifts you receive be of benefit for all, listen closely to my words. If your wish is that thoughts of you bring benefit to all, listen closely to my words....” (Look For Class 23 linked below)
