H.H. Acharya Shree Mahashraman arrived today with a plan to stay for a day at Hanuman Singh Inter College of Devkali. He expressed his thoughts to the audiences regarding the value of money in the world. He said to meet the requirements of life, money plays an important role and is required. Life is a three-level requirements -
In Pious Presence of H.H. Aacharya Shri Mahashraman Ji, All Monks During Hajari Vachan,
The first mandatory requirement is air, water and food. Second as housing and clothing requirements. Third as the education, medical etc. Money is essential to fulfill all these requirements. This is the importance of money in life. However, importance of money should not be at the cost of moral. It is important to secure your moral. With a low moral and excessive money one can become a reason of pain to others. Karma, is the universal casual law by which good or bad actions determine the future modes of an individual's existence.Karma thus serves two main functions: it provides the major motivation to live a moral life, and it serves as the primary explanation of the existence of evil. Money, deceitful acts or corruption cannot engage in the defense of the individual funds in the bank of karma. The doctrine of Karma purely says "As you sow, so you reap". Karma does not accept any monetary bribe to discount one from the what he has to face in future. Money cannot save people from hell. Maybe the question would arise as should one stop earning money? The answer is one should earn with ethics and principles. One should keep away from the foul two dimensions - the lie and steal. Those funds could be disturbance. Sincerely in creating peace of mind is to give to charity. To use the funds in the good of others is satisfaction in mind.
