1304: Beautiful Destitution

Wisdom of the Sages

"Beware of over-concern for money, or position, or glory. Someday you will meet a man who cares for none of these things. Then you will know how poor you are." - Rudyard Kipling / the emptiness that drives us to seek fulfillment through externals / the treasure in the heart of the sadhu / affection for others running through affection for Krishna / prema is the wealth that makes everything else appear pale / the steady engagement in releasing, accepting and stepping up one notch / the ocean of eternal happiness / "This is misery, but it gives me a laugh…. All that is left of this family life is a list of names." - Bhaktivedanta Swami / "I gradually take away all the wealth of those upon whom I am merciful." - Krishna / with Krishna, there's beauty in destitution
