Wealth

To think of wealth as most important, is a sign of polluted intellect.

For righteousness (Dharma) one needs mind, not wealth.

Wealth by itself, does not enslave man. He himself becomes a slave to wealth and thus has a fall.

Because of riches nobody becomes great. On the contrary he may become a beggar. In reality great is one, who never wants anything.

Whatever wealth one gets today is not due to present actions, but is a fruit of his past acts (destiny). To gain riches with the help of lies, frauds, dishonesty and thefts, as people do, would invite punishment, in the future.

It is not sure, that unjustly earned wealth would be useful, but it is certain, to attract punishment.

Where there is need for money, there is no godliness, on the contrary, it becomes a slavery of wealth.

Just as one spends money to overcome his unhappiness, so must he spend it to remove the unhappiness of others, only then we have the right to hold such riches.

For the sake of money using lies, fraud, dishonesty etc., brings about great harm and not much benefit, nor money, Whatever money comes, could then never be used fully. So, for the sake of a minor benefit, to do a great wrong, is not wise.

After one's death, man's nature goes with him, his wealth does not. He is only messing up his nature if he accumulates money, fie upon such wisdom.

On having wealth, man does not achieve independence, but he becomes dependent on money, because it is alien to him.

Even with wealth, man could be a saint, but because of desire for money, one would not become a saint.

Penury is not wiped out by getting money, but it vanishes only when the desire for money is given up.

Man's respect does not gain by increase in his wealth, but by enlarging Dharma (righteousness).

Material things are superior to wealth, man is superior to things, discrimination is superior to man, while God is superior to discrimination, Man's birth as a human being is for realising the Reality (God).
