So if we trace back the past lives of many famous people or those who are rich or powerful or all together – what would we find ?
Many many many life times of pain and suffering. Lives lived in oppression. Hardships.
There are a few exceptions. Past lives of Mukesh Ambani. Or Bill Gates. Abraham Lincoln
But in general, much pain, constant soul anguish of wanting money and power and then finally Shakti sees enough karma is accumulated and the wish is granted. Same is true for the so called guru
We should never get jealous of them.
The take home message is – if you yearn for those things and before that desire has gotten hold of you stop it. Divert it. Otherwise to accumulate that much karma for money and power – be prepared for many many life times of anguish. Is it worth it? A thousand years of pain for a 40 years of material gain?
