"Wealth"

-

 

1. Wealth was demanded not as a fulfilment in itself, but because they recognised that riches can be justified and enjoyed only by the mission that it fulfils.

 

 

2. If  wealth were to be idle, and one knows only to enjoy it as a dispenser of confidence and assurance of having a high bank balance, one knows not how to milk one's wealth to yield a greater joy unto oneself.

 

 

3. Here the teacher is giving the right turn of mind to the growing disciples so that they may, when they are fit, desire for immense wealth for a great and noble cause, namely for running universities where students are served and looked after.

 

4. The rich are trustees of the illiterate and the needy.

All religions are rooted in truth. Honesty, justice, straightforwardness and sincerity are only modifications or expressions of truth. Next :10. Purity Swami Sivananda      To be continued...
