Clinging...


“The bliss of a truth-seeking life is attainable for anyone who 
follows the path of unselfishness. If you cling to your wealth, 
it is better to throw it away than let it poison your heart. 
But if you don't cling to it but use it wisely, 
then you will be a blessing to people. 
It's not wealth and power that enslave men
 but the clinging to wealth and power.” 

Majjhima Nikaya
