It's true that money can buy anything today. But still to think of it, can it really buy everything. You may have all the money to go and sit in the best of the Hotels in your place, but imagine if you would not have a loving companion to spend those luxury moment with would it really be worth it. In the times of Covid almost everyone suffered, the rich and the poor in some or the other ways. The Super Markets in our areas were running empty. People had money to buy but there were no goods available. There was extreme food shortage, so even with the money one could not buy the food.
Imagine if we deplete our resources completely then no money will also help. Just like what happened in Sri Lanka, people had money but still they could not buy because there was extreme shortage. They had to spend a fortune on basics. And if we continue depleting our resources in the same manner then sooner or later every Country is going to go through similar crises. Today the rich people sitting in their luxurious apartments are not bothered much about how they use their resources. People do not value simple basic utilities like water, electricity, clean environment. They use it mindlessly. Air conditioners are kept switched on all through out in the house because many of them do not want to feel even a little bit of discomfort in any part of their home. Water is used carelessly.
Even if people get charged for all of these utilities they are not bothered because they think they can afford to pay for it so why not. But imagine a day when we will not have any of these left and then what. Even money will not help us to get it. Some months ago Sadhguru did a Save Soil campaign across the world, it is not just a very good initiative but a must do initiative, because if we do not conserve and increase the level of our Natural resources right now, very soon we will be living in dry lands with scarcity of all the required resources for life, and then the ultimate would be everything will be lab grown. Just like how the lab grown meats are already being promoted. Do we really want to eat lab grown foods.
If we have money we can buy anything, but we still cannot buy love, life, joy, relationships and happiness for us. Some may argue that we can buy these things also but then they will never give us that inner-peace and joy for sure. A person may attract a partner luring with money, but the Love factor will always be missing. Money will not be able to buy us fresh air for sure, that's a gift from our nature to us and we need to value it.
Having money is good and enjoying the comforts of life with it is also good but being mindful about how we are using it is important. Just like how we constantly work on our money to grow, we should also constantly work on our natural resources to grow rather then depleting them.
