Definition
Gift-giving-as-felt-bond — the voluntary generous dimension of sacrifice where the offering is freely given without expectation of return, creating and deepening a relational bond between giver and DIVINE. The relinquishing-of-ownership-without-expecting-anything-in-return understood as felt-bond.
The gap it fills
gift-giving-as-felt-bond — the voluntary generous dimension of sacrifice; five-tradition convergence on sacrifice as gift rather than loss or extraction (Sanskrit dāna, Hebrew minchah/nedavah, Akkadian sheriktu, Yoruba adimu, Latin sacrificium)
