Spiritual Practices For Becoming Financially Independent / Self Suff & Empowered
Blessings, love, light, peace, joy , health, wealth, prosperity:
I am new here.
2: I realize that perhaps de-t is a form of a quantitative expression of one's "s-ns"? I know we are all innocent and remain so no matter our act (ref. Nagle, Plato) . Nonetheless , I am working on removing all s-nful thoughts and practices and engaging in r-pentance (p-nance etc.). I know I am innocent and I know God is light , love & forgiveness but I kind of could not suffer any more and began p-nitential practices (it would be great if we all remained ever youthful in body and spirit/innocence and did not suffer).
I attended a sermon and the cleric said that if you consume "interest" on wealth then the wealth does not exactly enlarge. I don't have much beyond maybe in my savings account , on which I earn non-reportable amounts of interest.
The cleric also asked to give to charity (which I do to panhandlers and various houses of worship ). I was asked to work hard and save money . I used to be able to work hard ... but find both difficult now.
I also find that despite my ivy league education (grad work and grad degrees and work experience in fields that are in highest of demand) I am yet to attract offers and work I am interested in (or even something I am able to embark upon/ without an "inner voice" sowing thoughts in my mind and discouraging me from accepting even the not so desirable employment). I find that despite my field of study I cannot seem to escape certain unpleasant employers (in my POV) contacting me (completely unrelated to my study) and those relevant to my field of study do not seem very interested, perhaps.
I am rather un comfortable with my present level of de-t and my present state of non wealth. It is incorrect that first the spiritual att-cks happen , things go wrong , people are forced to s-n (against their will or in their sleep etc.) and they are then rid-culed , called s-nners and subjected to non wealth and non independence. This is in-equity perhaps.
It is written in the Bible that wealth brings many friends/lovers and the not so wealthy are not dear even to the near & dear ones. I believe everyone has the right to blessings and wealth without non-joy (and without any non-positive unwholesome attachments to the wealth) -as mentioned in the Bible. This wealth so we may live virtuously, ponder over the best of ideas and allow self and others to enjoy the ideal lifestyle. I believe none deserve to be without wealth and freedom for it is lack of wealth and freedom which lead to non virtue. I never worried about wealth but pr-vation may lead to pondering over wealth...
Thank you in advance and blessings and joy and love and prosperity for all!
p.s. this is my first post, it says I have made three posts in my profile, which is rather in accurate
