The Level of naturalness (sahajata) for earning money : )

An inner intent to earn more money :

The intent (bhaavna) to earn more money
is raudradhyan (adverse internal meditation that hurts the
person having it and also others around). Intent for earning money means
intent to create shortage of money for others.
That is why the Lord has said, ‘do not have any
intent (occupy yourself) to earn money.’ Do
you ever plan and occupy yourself (contemplate,
dhyan) about taking a shower everyday?
Questioner : No Dada.
Dadashri : Even if you do not do that,
don’t you get a bucket full of water?

Questioner : I do get it.

Dadashri : Just as you get one bucket
of water for your shower without planning,
similarly everybody gets enough money for his
or her need. This is the law. There is no reason
for a person to become occupied with money.
Do you ever think whether you will get
a mattress to sleep on tonight? Whereas here,
one is preoccupied day and night with money,
money and money! How did you find the
stupid guru who has taught you to chase
money all day long? Due to this, people have
lost their home values and health, and have
invited ruin. We now see more people having
high blood pressure and heart attacks.
What the world does is mediated by
worldly knowledge (loksangnya). This worldly
knowledge becomes the leader for one who
has not found the right spiritual teacher. The
world believes that happiness lies in money.
The disease has got in because of this worldly
knowledge. Now, with which knowledge can
this disease be eradicated? The Lord says
that this disease can be eradicated through the
knowledge of the Gnani (gnanisangnya).
That is why I am trying to tell you this;
even without thinking do you not get water for
bathing or a mattress to sleep on or all the
other necessary things? This is your
spontaneous state (sahaj) for your routine
needs. This level of naturalness (sahajata)
needs to be there for money also.

 
Right Activity
 
Always perform small as well as important duties with deep attention, remembering that God is guiding and stimulating every worthwhile effort you are making to achieve a noble ambition.
