IN THE ABSENCE OF DIVINITY LIFE BECOMES BURDENSOME
Being rich is different from having a great deal of money. Money is a physical tool in paper that represents a small part of our energy that we can use for our needs and comfort.
Money can buy physical comforts and security, but it has its limitations. With money we can possess things, but we cannot possess human love, joy, or respect.
When people are confused they attach themselves to money, earning money, hoarding money, possessing money, thinking that it can buy them everything and keep them secure. In this confusion they are afraid to open their heart, they live in fear of sharing with others, they become so controlling that they lose their joy.
Their heart craves for love, because love is the only thing that can renders selfless service and in turn open the heart to the wealth of Divinity. When there is no divinity, life becomes mechanical, burdensome, and there is always a feeling that something is missing. There is no satisfaction, this is poverty. So even though there is a great deal of money there is no richness in it.
Divinity shows the way to relax into the present moment, the present moment that has everything we need. If we are sitting in a chair even if the chair is someone else’s , for that moment we sit on it, it is ours. If we are living in a house, even if it is rented or in someone else’s name, for that moment it is ours, isn’t it. People forget this and continue to fight for the printed paper with their name or a paper with denominations. Being truly rich is to relax into the present moment, were everything is for us to enjoy and nothing to possess. This is great freedom and abundance.
Appreciating the present moment is a great prayer to the Universe, because the Universe is our co-creator, it responds to our feeling and brings more of the things that we are placing our feelings on.
Blessings!
