Everyone in the world desires victory. No one desires defeat. All crave for wealth, no one craves for poverty. But, how should one achieve victory and wealth? There is no need to undergo threefold struggle - physical, mental, intellectual - to achieve victory.  Nor one need get perturbed or anxious or pine for wealth and prosperity. Take refuge in the Lord.  Wield the bow of courage by holding your heart pure. That is enough. Victory and wealth will be yours. As you pursue victory and wealth, remind yourself that they are like your shadows, not substantial things in themselves. You cannot attain your shadow, even if you pursue it for a million years.

-Vidya Vahini, Chapter IX

Love is the solvent for the hardest of the hearts. - Baba
