Mystical Mondays: Kabir on Wealth





I own more than these flowers. The dilemma is this, who do I compare myself to when I look at myself and my wealth? I look one way and see the mega-rich, I look the other and I see those who are hungry.


An Intelligent Rich Person


I don't think there is such a thing as
an intelligent mega-rich
person.

For who with a fine mind can look
out upon this world and
hoard

what can nourish
a thousand
souls.

Kabir
