The Pure Mind
In the modern times, man himself has been altering his ethical values. Today, a man's greatness is measured not by his nobility and humanity but by his wealth and worldly position. Akbar Ilahabadi says:
नहि कुछ इसकी पुरसिश zenā zeme fafant 1 सभी यह पूछते है
आपकी तनखाह कितनी ॥ Nahi kuch isaki purasish Ulfathe Allah kithani hai sabhi yah poochathe hai apki thanakah kithani hai ||
Nobody asks you how much devotion you have for God; on the other hand, all people ask you how much salary you are getting; and in this world you are honoured in proportion to your salary or wealth. People forget that man is the master of wealth. Actually, man is more valuable than money. Man should not surrender himself to wealth; on the other hand wealth should revolve round him.
