Everything you do has a selfish intent, whether you consciously realize it or not. For example, if you do good toward others, it's because you could feel good yourself (or at least not feel guilty). So, what could you do that is a COMPLETELY selfless act?

Nothing is selfless when the mind still believes in the "I".

Give up your sense of self separate from God,then you have unity with God in unconditional love within your heart and all your actions are selfless acts of service to God and all he created, Doing Gods will. Dharma.

something like donating your organs or blood to somebody who is often ill and in deperarate need of them. by doing this, not only are you offering them life but you are also being selfless, considerate and caring- not selfish. and that's selfless in itself surely

I did not realize it that way. Viewing things as you put it is difficult to think in a single act as unselfish.

As someone told you above, Natural Death (because someone that suicides is thinking in his good) is the only mandatory act that does not obey one's will.

Good luck!

Walk outside, and slap the first person you meet.
There's no real intent in that, a completely random act.

Literally "Die" for your friend or neighbor. That is the ultimate selfless act.

Knowingly give your life for another person (that you do not know) and no one will ever know about it.

To die. You can't decide it (naturally); therefore, it isn't selfish, it's mandatory.
