Wealth is an instrument, which enhances one’s willpower, energy, and ability to do something needful to live one’s life honestly and truthfully. Wealth becomes a weapon and kills one mercilessly if one fails to use it properly. Hence, one should keep his wealth within control as if a warrior keeps his sword inside its box to be used at the time of need only. Great people say wealth must be earned honestly through four means. Such as –
BY INTELLECTUAL POWER,
EXTENDING PROTECTION TO OTHERS,
FLOURISHING BUSINESS ACTIVITY
AND SERVING OTHERS TO SMOTHEN LIFE.
Hence, in ancient times, there emerged four kinds of KARMA and accordingly
four castes were created. Contribution is the basic feature of spending the
wealth that one can contribute to someone, who really needs it or can
contribute to self for smooth living; failing which, it is destined to be
unutilized, which we call destruction of wealth.
If one goes on accumulating wealth without contributing to it or spending
it, his life would be in danger and he cannot live peacefully in society;
because the accumulation of wealth makes one blind against his relations kith and
kin. He becomes careless and adamant. He thinks him powerful for no reason. It
initiates corruption. Hence, wealth must flow like a river so that it fills one
and heals one. Wealth is a healing element that solaces one if rightly utilized.
Hence, great people say, wealth must be used for four purposes. Such as -
To maintain tradition and fame,
multiply it for further use,
keep self-protected
and keep relatives comfortable besides wife and children.
