What attitude can help us earn money?

Sri Bhagavan:


"We should also understand the difference between money making and wealth creation. Making money is an unenlightened pursuit. You could gamble and make money, or go racing and make money. While wealth creation, on the other hand, is a spiritual activity. Wealth, ultimately, is the ability to add value to things and people. Let us say you set up an academy to train young minds in order to create productive citizens, who are creating wealth for the nation. You create an industry, you are helping employ many people, and are also strengthening the social fabric into being richer. Wealth always has a tendency to percolate.

There is an Indian word for money, which is called "nanayam". What this means is integrity. That is, the name means integrity. If money is rightfully earned, it indicates your contribution to society. What have you done for society, whereby you've earned that much money. It's an indicator of your contribution.

Your ability to create and retain wealth is determined by your relationship with money. Like everything else, money is a form of energy which is attracted to the energy that is like itself. Your relationship with anything determines how much of that thing you are attracting or repelling. Money does not exist by itself but it is always attached with the energy of the person who relates with it. The same money can be experienced by different people in different ways according to the relationship they each have with it.

Rich people know that money is important, that is why they have it. Poor people think money is not important, that is why they lack it. Can you imagine if you kept telling your spouse that they are not important, how long do you think they are going to stay with you? What you appreciate, appreciates in value. What you do not appreciate, depreciates in value. Know that money is important and appreciate it, but do not be attached to it. It's having a healthy relationship where you cherish it but are free from it.

Your motivation for making money is vital. If your motivation for making money comes from fear, anger or the need to prove yourself, then money will never bring you happiness. Anger and the need to prove yourself are also forms of fear. It is a state of being where you feel you don't have something and therefore you need to fight to get it. It is to intend and act from a place of fear. The opposite is to intend and act from a place of love. It is a state of being where you are whole and doing what brings you joy

When you indulge in wealth creation with intelligence and integrity, money is an automatic byproduct."

Man's victory lies in his surrender to God.

Sri Amma Bhagavan: We can expound this teaching at different levels. We will see one perspective only right now.      God's will is the Divine Will. What we see is the Divine Will. All things are happening automatically. Sun is rising in the east, seasons are coming, earth is revolving round the sun, you are waking up in the morning, you are getting hunger, thinking is happening etc. Therefore, what is happening is the Divine Will.      God has gifted man with the Free Will. Which means, man has the power to think whatever he wants, speak whatever he wants and can do whatever he wants to do. That is how one can design one's life. Throw flowers, flowers will fall on you; throw stones, stones will fall on you. Thus you are the creator of your own destiny. But, you are full of hurts, ego, jealousy, anger, hatred, traumas etc. hence your thoughts, words and actions result in such decisions leading to a particular kind of life.      ...

Sri Bhagavan on Happening of Miracles and Transformation.

Bhagavan, when people meet Amma ji and Bhagavan ji, tremendous miracles are happening to them and they are experiencing great transformation. How does it happen? Sri Bhagavan: See basically when you come to me, that is why we say please come one by one. Even when you are one family or husband and wife, very often i am focusing, we don't even know who is the person standing next. Even though we know the person very very well. While looking we can't pick up the other person at all. When we focus on you we actually experience you. Of course we take some precautions because, if you sense we are experiencing, you will collapse. So we don't do that. So up to a point we experience you. Then it gives me a feeling that what is causing you pain. That is why I take little bit time to adjust. So once I can get it exactly, we feel that this is what you want desperately. We take sankalpa that this must change now. When we feel and take the sankalpa, then what happens is, it becom...

Sri Bhagavan Gave Me A Life Changing Course - SaiShruthi

▪ In the youth course when Dasaji told that our beliefs depends on perceptions and perceptions depends on events and second thing is big to small. ▪Even for a big problem there will be a small solution. ▪I prayed Sri Bhagavan to answer my questions and my situations what I am facing in my life. ▪Then Sri Bhagavan showed me a small situation which had taken place in my childhood at the age of 5-6 years. ▪Actually my grandfathers are 5 brothers and my grandfather is the elder one so he stopped his studies and made his brothers to study so all their families are well settled and grownup rich but our family was left over as a farmer's family. ▪So when we used to go to the functions and all family events, we are treated like poor and at that time I even want to play with my cousins and all as a child of the same age... But because of the situations they all used to avoid me and brother even to play with them also. Eventually we also stopped playing with them and star...
