Let The Rich Become Richer, And The Poor Poorer – Do You Know Who Said This?

Thanks a lot Sunitha for all the nice words. These thoughts are something I practised even while going through tough times. Once I was stranded in Chennai without enough money for auto fare. For a minute I was desperate. Then I recovered and enjoyed the bus-ride. In fact with just ten Rupees in my purse I convinced the auto-driver to take up another passenger to the same destination so that he need not lose on my account.
Thus when internal poverty is driven out, external poverty cannot stand on its own.
thanks to the inspiring quote.

Dear Akila,
thanks a lot.

Thanks, ice. This is one of the subtlest points in devotional literature as well as motivational psychology. I have close to a dozen examples on this. Will see them all in due course.
thanks for coming in,

Thanks Malar. Simply because I write these kind of things it does not at all mean that I am beyond all these things. I am also trying in as much as you are. That unclutching part is very difficult.
The trick as I have known is to get the concept deep into our mind. And when an occasion arises to just observe what our mind thinks and how our body reacts. Doing that again and again (a few days, a few years or a few million lifetimes) is the only way out.

I know which guru you are talking about. I bought a book containing his lectures. Some of the points in his book are very good. I thought I should read the book two pages a day so that I can imbibe the good qualities. But alas the very next day I saw him on the TV in the most compromising position. Now when I see his picture on the book cover the thoughts I get in my mind are not about him but about the other person.

Thanks for coming in, malar.
