I'm struggling with attachment and greed. According to Baba's teachings, what is the 'simple remedy' for these faults and why is it effective?

📖 Chapter 14

According to the wisdom in Chapter 14, the simple remedy for faults like lust, anger, and greed is a one-syllable instruction: 'Da.' This is interpreted as a call to be merciful ('Daya'), give charity ('Dana'), and be self-controlled ('Danta'). This remedy is effective because it directly counteracts the nature of these faults. Sai Nath, the ocean of mercy, is said to stretch out His hand for the devotee's benefit, pulling them from the pit of greed. By practicing giving with faith, as the scriptures command, your heart becomes pure, and you can attain extreme happiness. Victory over these faults is difficult, but Baba's plan provides this simple path.
