kripa (Devanagari: कृपा ISO15919: kr̥pā) means grace. Grace can be bestowed by only those who

  • don't need anything from anyone AND
  • what they have does not decrease by giving.

These two criteria are fulfilled only by God and God-realized saints. No one else meets these two criteria.

This kripa is of primarily three types. See the references below to learn more about those.
