Out of Satvik nature most of us try to help the others in whatever way they would like to help. It is good to be good. A simple thought passed away from my mind giving birth to an idea, which queried : How many ways one can help other ? And What is the best way to help other?
I think to answer this query we may have to ask a fundamental query - How can we define HELP ? I think one's definition of this word reveals the thought process behind his help-to-others act.
If I may be allowed to define - I define it as an act to ease others SITUATION to reach their desired GOAL.
Now, depending on the SITUATION and GOAL, the help can be measured in varying degrees. SITUATION can be Physical weakness, Psychological weakness; GOAL can be Material, Spiritual.
For instance, to help a person in need to go to hospital, giving lift to a stranger on the road seeing his physical disability, financing a person to improve his health can be categorized as "Physical weakness to achieve Material goal".
For instance a help to raise a financial situation of a person, recommendation for a job may be categorized as "Psychological situation for achieving Material Goal".
For instance a help to listen to problems in their relationships and to give advice to solve seemed_to_be_problems, proactively pointing to their mistakes in a gentle way and showing them the path to overcome their mistakes, helping them to overcome their bad habits, Guiding them to the path which could reveal their true nature, raise their standard of thought process can be categorized as "Psychological situation for achieving Spiritual goal".
To improve health of a Person, thereby extending his life span to reach his Spiritual Goal can be categorized as "Physical weakness to achieve Spiritual Goal".
In my view the highest HELP one can do is to raise "Physical strength of a Person to achieve Spiritual goal". This help can be done only by the Person who Mastered his Mind. It's NOT possible for a normal person who struggle to control his Mind.
In my view, for a normal person (like me) who strive to Master his Mind, the best Possible help one can do to others will be to raise a Person's psychological strength to achieve Spiritual Goal.
