person with a lot of intellect tells him: 'wait! Why are you giving money to this man?' The man gives the money anyway and the poor person takes it, but just by making the comment, the intellectual person created an obstacle for himself whereby when he is unhappy and needy, he will not find anyone to help him. (347)
you will inevitably benefit from doing so. If you make others miserable, your misery is in it for sure. You can do whatever you want to. (339)
Whatever you do to know and attain your real Self is your 'main production and because of this main production, the byproduction will automatically be there and whatever you need for your worldly life will come to you. I only keep one kind of production: May the entire world attain permanent peace and many attain liberation'. This is my main production and because of this I continue to get the resultant by-production. The tea and snacks I get served are different from what you get served. Why is that? It is because my production is of a higher quality. In the same way if your production were of a higher quality, your byproduction would also be of a higher quality. (340)
All we have to do now is just change our goal, nothing else. We have to decide on our goal and keep that goal in mind, nothing else. Money should not remain in our awareness. (342)
Questioner: What is the right use of money? Dadashri: When you use it for others or for the Lord.(344) Questioner: What should we do if money does not last?
Dadashri: Money is something that will not last. But change the way it is used. If it is flowing in the wrong path, change the path so that it flows on the path of religion. How ever much of your money flows on the right path that much is true money. Money will last only after God arrives in your home, how else will it remain?
If your money flows on the wrong path, then put a control over it. If it is flowing on the right path, then decontrol it.
A man is giving some money to a poor person and another
THE FLOW OF CHARITY From now on you can erase everything through repentance and you should make a decision not to make comments like, "Money should not be given to others in charity'. If you inadvertently happen to do so, then you should ask for forgiveness and it will be erased. This is like changing the contents of a letter before you mail it. Once the letter is mailed, it is too late, so change the contents before it is too late. Before you had commented that it was wrong to give money in charity and now you are erasing that comment by saying it is good to give to charity, so your previous belief gets erased.
Only your religion and spirituality will help you at the time of need, so let your money flow in the path of religion (349)
What is the nature of money? It is restless and mobile. It will come but one day it will go away. So spend your money for the good of others. Whenever you are faced with bad circumstances the only thing that will help you is what you have given to others. So you must have this understanding ahead of time. Surely money should be spent on the right path?(350)
There are four kinds of charities: They are food, medicine, knowledge, and freedom from fear. (350)
