True Wealth

Prosperity is evident as a continuous, timely flow of resources, events, circumstances, and relationships appropriate to and supportive of our meaningful purposes in life and that amply provide for our needs. 
~Roy Eugene Davis

In the teachings of the philosophical teachings of Yoga, there are four overarching goals in life. The first is knowing our purpose in life—to know what is best for our and others well-being and live in harmony with all of life. The second is to prosper—to attract what we need to fulfill our purpose in life. The third is pleasure-life is meant to be lived fully and enjoyed. The fourth goal is to awaken to the knowing that we are all units of Divine Energy. Being prosperous is not only financial prosperity but, as Mr. Davis says it is also relationships and circumstances that support us in living our lives in the highest way. Two practices that can support your awareness of prosperity in your life are having gratitude and being generous. In her book, The Jewel of Abundance, Yogacharya O'Brian says "Change your mind and consciousness from lack to abundance, and wealth will naturally follow...True wealth is access to resources on all levels—physical, mental, emotional and spiritual."  We already have all that we need, we just need to awaken to that knowing.
