Men who obtain their wealth by immoral means are never at peace in their hearts. He may have an aeroplane and he may travel around the world in it, or he may have an expensive car, a big house and everything, but he won’t be happy in his heart. We have met millionaires and billionaires; none of them have peace of mind.

          A thief may think ‘I’m doing well’ but what happens when he is caught? That’s why wrong is always wrong and right is always right.

          Outwardly they appear to be happy but they don’t have spiritual fulfilment. Although we have never hurt others, by God’s wish we still face hardships because He wants to purify us. Since we have become God’s, He protects us so that we never forget Him (in worldly pleasures). By following dharma we can attain harmony in our families, our society and our country. We should realise that, ‘If I help him then I will attain peace, but if I kill him then even if I have all his wealth, I won’t have peace of mind. Because I’ve hurt him, because I’ve destroyed him I’ll be destroyed too.’ By keeping this in mind, we will never hurt anyone.

          What do we need? The one who has given us teeth to chew will give us food. It doesn’t matter if we don’t have a car or a big house. We should earn by our own labour, while staying in our dharma, but not by deceit. If we hurt someone to obtain something, then in the end we will suffer for their pain. One who follows dharma and does Satsang becomes happy. When we obtain knowledge and understanding we will realise that this talk is true and that those who do wrong are not really happy. We should have a firm conviction that if we follow God’s niyams, then we will not be miserable, but fulfilled.
