Hare Krsna
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada
There is no superior wealth in this material world than the wealth of religious principles. This material body is temporary. Today it is alive ; tomorrow it may be dead. Our most merciful Lord has kindly given this world the holy name and the treasury of love of God. One should accept them from a bona fide spiritual master and the Vaishnavas. Srimad Bhagavatam and Sri Caitanya Caritamrta are the two invaluable jewels in this world. One should discuss them with utmost care. There is no need to advertise oneself as a learned man. One should distribute the wealth of devotional service to all living entities. Oneshould lead a pious life and earn one’s livelihood through pious means andthus maintain himself and his dependents. But one should never forget the holy names of Krishna.
