'''Generosity''' (Skt. ''dāna''; Tib. [[སྦྱིན་པ་]], ''jinpa''; [[Wyl.]] ''sbyin pa''), the first of the [[six paramitas]], is defined as an attitude of giving.

==Subdivisions==
[[Chökyi Drakpa]] says:

:The first of these, generosity, is divided into 
:*material giving, 
:*giving the Dharma, and 
:*giving protection from fear. 
:You should practise these three kinds of generosity according to your capacity. At the very least, you should offer [[Sur]] (burnt offerings) and [[water torma]]s, since this offering incorporates all three kinds of giving.
