Money matters

How can we strike a balance in our relationship with money?
I put my entire heart and soul in my work, and trust the process to give me what is right. And the beauty of it is I always get more than enough. As long as I know what I am doing is right for me I am sure the rewards will follow.

I believe in the principle of not accumulating wealth. If you have enough for survival, that is enough. Everything has been falling into my lap when I required it. The Divine provides if you believe It will. I haven�t bought any clothes for myself. I wear my father�s and son�s clothes and that is enough for me.

My satisfaction is from my work and also from my salary, so I feel I�ve been paid double! I do my work because I enjoy it so much; it wouldn�t be possible to do so otherwise. So I am eternally grateful for my salary. This view keeps me on good terms with money, a sort of harmonious balance.

I respect money a lot. It is a mutual respect; I don�t go berserk on spending and money doesn�t disappear either. It�s because of this balance that I feel money has been with me all through. I am very grateful to have understood and struck this balance.

Money is the value of what I do, the services I provide. This very fact does not allow me to misuse it. If I misuse money, I feel I am misusing my talents, I feel I am throwing away God�s gift. So this keeps the relation between money and me in check.

For me money doesn�t matter. I do my work and pray to the Great One to provide for me. He gives me as much as I need, and I have yet to face a problem with this system. It is a beautiful balance between God and me, which provides and suffices.
