We are dealing with the aspect of FA in our lives right now! But, as always said, English has a limitation with regards to words and the meaning that one wishes to express especially with regards to the world of spirituality (which in other words would be Completeness). One such word is “Ashta Aishwarya” which means ‘eight types of abundance or wealth’ should make a man a complete man. In this list comes last though not the least – our dear cash or assets. It means any man to experience the wealth of life should have eight aspect of wealth and cash is the last one needed to actually feel wealthy.

If it be so, how come I live and feel like a beggar all through my life? Why am I leading a life of penury – whether real or imaginary day after day?

And the answer is what I am repeatedly coming to through every subject dealt with and with the start and end of this blog too….. that is symptoms are many and of various degrees in our life – symptoms of deficiencies…..but the root cause is always the one and the only one. That is ‘we not knowing ourselves’. There is no other reason for us to experience any type of lacuna in our life. But we are….

Feeling wealthy, complete and peaceful is a remote utopian dream which looks unattainable for any normal man – this is the common belief. But, in actuality we already are wealthy, complete and peaceful. Refer story of a beggar who doesn’t know is the ‘heir apparent to a kingdom’.

Because of this ignorance all the reasons which cause deficiencies in our life look real and unsolvable.

Ignorance comes from attachment with the ten windows of our body viz., are five sense organs and five action organs. They enslave us and thereby karma is accrued ……….and then emptiness makes us hallow from within and this emptiness is the cause of deficiency in life – be it physical, social, emotional or financial. Only abundance can attract abundance. This is the golden rule. And so I said “ get detached from the ten windows of our body”….if you really want to experience FA in life…
