He Who Has Wealth Has Friends.

Lakshmi, The Goddess Of Wealth, Comes Of Her Own Accord Where Fools Are Not Respected, Grain Is Well Stored Up, And The Husband And Wife Do Not Quarrel.

Purity Of Speech, Of The Mind, Of The Senses, And Of A Compassionate Heart Are Needed By One Who Desires To Rise To The Divine Platform.

My Dear Child, If You Desire To Be Free From The Cycle Of Birth And Death, Then Abandon The Objects Of Sense Gratification As Poison. Drink Instead The Nectar Of Forbearance, Upright Conduct, Mercy, Cleanliness And Truth.

Water Is The Medicine For Indigestion; It Is Invigorating When The Food That Is Eaten Is Well Digested; It Is Like Nectar When Drunk In The Middle Of A Dinner; And It Is Like Poison When Taken At The End Of A Meal.

A Father Who Is A Chronic Debtor, An Adulterous Mother, A Beautiful Wife, And An Unlearned Son Are Enemies In One's Own Home.
