Spiritual philosophy - how those who have one are superior to materialists: they carry their wealth with them at all times

12/23/2010

What is the difference between those with a spiritual philosophy and materialists? I'll take a very simple image and say that spiritual people carry their house with them wherever they go, whereas materialists cannot move theirs. Yes, spiritual people, for whom real treasures are inner ones, always travel with their bag of joy, happiness and expansion (their house), whereas materialists cannot come and go with all their possessions and have to leave most of them in place. Actually, human beings are rich only insofar as they are aware of being so. If a spiritual person is not aware of their wealth, they are poorer than any materialist. But if they learn to expand their consciousness, they feel they are connected with all the evolved souls in the universe, who give them their knowledge, their light and their joy. And then, what materialist can compare with them? Even precious stones and diamonds pale before all their dazzling inner treasures.
