"You must be rich in
devotion to God. Great devotees pray that their difficulties may
continue, so that they keep the Lord ever in their mind. Riches
are a great handicap in the path of spiritual progress. Even
though you may be rich, do not cultivate attachment to the bank
account or to the mansions, cars and comforts you command. Have
them, as if they are given to you on trust by the Lord."
