We all know the story of "Sagar Mathanam". During Sagar Mathan first there was a poison. Later on, there were exotic resources. We know that exotic and rare items keep coming out and one or the other God or demigods acquire it. Then there comes Lakshmi!!!
Lakshmi chooses Vishnu and marries him. Nobody dares to acquire her. She "chooses". She chooses Vishnu the keeper of universe (Brahmanda Palaka), maintainer of 'sthithi' (existence), allocator of resources (Dravya).
Metaphorically, to say, Goddess Lakshmi the Goddess of wealth or money chooses, and it is not we choose her. Also to say, money is a biproduct of something too big a cause or too a huge objective or an extra ordinary expedition which makes a normal one scared to dream of!!! Secondly, it chooses to stay (marry!) with one who efficiently keeps, maintains, allocates.
Irrespective of sheer amount of it that one holds, not every single cents/paisa earned grows exponentially. One is only as rich as s/he can eat, clothe, travel or consume as much s/he can. This makes the greatest leveller of all who hold riches less or more. What makes a difference is the aura a wealthy one carries around him because s/he is known to be wealthy, so a popular millionaire carries more aura around him than a hidden billionaire operating in private. So, aura that money gives is also not the same!!!
So, we need to teach our next generation not to chase wealth but focus on larger objectives, at the same time to be the keeper, allocators of money in judicious manner.
Most importantly, motive is not for an impressive FB, Insta profiles but rather real biography that they are anytime feel proud within!!!
