Law of Karma - "Value Systems for Success"

Law of Karma – “Value Systems for Success”

Four Categories of Spiritual Seekers

Seekers of wealth

These people go to the temple, church or mosque and pray for more wealth. They go to holy men for fear of losing their wealth. They study religion with the intention of acquiring more wealth. Some of them even make GOD their shareholder in business, offering a certain percentage of profit to the temple or church with an intention of getting better business!

Seeker of Solace

These are people who are mentally very disturbed in life. They feel a lot of guilt. As a penance for their selfish deeds and destructive action, they resort to spiritual places or holy men to quench their guilty conscience. They are suffering mentally; therefore, they resort to spirituality and religion to find peace. They are temporarily consoled by the environment.

Enquirer

These are people who want to quench their intellectual curiosity. They are information hunters from the scriptures. They resort to the scriptures merely for mundane answers to satisfy their curiosity. They do not go deeper to understand the practice the philosophy. They are contented with superficial information.

The wise one

They are people who take to spirituality for understanding the essence of religion, to develop spiritually and unveil their own Self. Their only interest and attention is upon the spiritual development leading to the Divinity. They have no other interest other than the spiritual field. They are the true seekers. But they are rare indeed.
