All of you accumulate money with great care, by thousands of acts of denial; denying yourself this comfort or that convenience, saving every possible way, spending less and earning more! But a day comes when you must leave this pile and go empty handed. Instead of accumulating money and depositing it in worldly banks, open an account today with God’s Bank. It receives deposits and maintains accounts strictly and confidentially. Every little sum is accounted for – your deeds, thoughts, words, whether good, bad or indifferent. No son or daughter can sue for that wealth; no tax-gatherer can lay his hands on it. No crook can transfer it to his purse. Open a deposit account there for your prosperity here and hereafter. That deposit, growing by your spiritual efforts, will give you joy and peace. While you should develop this saving habit here, for the sake of old age and a rainy day, it is necessary you develop ‘that saving habit’ for the hereafter, so that you may be saved.

- Divine Discourse, July 14, 1966.
