MONEY
part from the book SAI BABA SPEAKS TO THE WEST, message of February 13
Be careful with money. Money comes and goes. Conversely, morality comes and grows.
There are five possibilities of how your relationship to money and God can be.
First: you are facing the world and you have no money.
Second: you are open to the world and you have money.
Third: you turn away from the world, turn to God and lose money.
Fourth: you turn to the world and get money.
And fifth: you turn to God and get more money.
Superficially, there is no great difference between the path to money through the world and through God. But if you look more closely, you will see that both paths are fundamentally different: if you are facing the world, then money has you, not the other way around.
That is why the transformation often takes place so that the god brings you to the edge of destruction, in order to change, i.e. become free.
If it fits the model of your karma and if it is favorable for your development, god will bless you with money at a later time, after he has become sure that your attitude towards money has changed.
Remember that you can never be permanently successful in the world - no matter how much the opposite may seem to you.
That's why he always sticks to this sequence in his priorities:
God comes first.
Second, your partner and your children.
On the third, your job.
Fourth, your earnings.
Never change that sequence, because without God in your heart, money is a poison that will slowly eat away at your soul, without you even noticing it.
