How to be more spiritual when making a decision?

 

 

Tom: Guru Harry, there is another point about money I like to ask you.

 

Guru: What is the other point?

 

Tom: When we make a decision, how come it is so often influenced by money?

 

Guru: Because this is how your society teaches you.

 

Tom: How come?

 

Guru: Because it is a worldly society.

 

Tom: What happens in a spiritual society?

 

Guru: Money has little influence.

 

Tom: So, how can we be more spiritual when making a decision?

 

Guru: Okay, when you have to make a decision, separate the issue into two components.

 

Tom: What are the two components?

 

Guru: Monetary component and non-monetary component.

 

Tom: Then?

 

Guru: Then, consider the non-monetary component first.

 

Tom: So, leave out the monetary component.

 

Guru: And make a decision based on the non-monetary component only.

 

Tom: Then?

 

Guru: Then, bring in the monetary component.

 

Tom: Then?

 

Guru: Then, make a decision based on both components.
