The true Giver in this story is the man who dropped his pride to receive the money without a fight. How many of you would say "Oh no. I can't take this!" first, out of humbleness, politeness, embarrassment....Be honest, our customs have trained us a certain way. The Author and his father receieved a hugely powerful gift BECAUSE the man allowed them to give. Givers are not bigger than Receivers. They are one in the same.
Takeaway from this pasage: Those who don't recognize the Truth will scoff at it. Those who do recognize the Truth also recognize it's value but will want to receive it at a discounted price. Cool programming, bro.
