There are two famous ideologies related to money. One is materialistic and the other is spiritual. Materialism says have as much money as you want through hook or crook. The spiritualism says you can either have God or money. Majority of people follow materialism. And they are not the happiest people!
The wise men of all times have advised the people in general to choose peaceful life. In the world around us, we see many affluent people who have plenty of money without peace and power; they don't enjoy life; money is of little use; the following lines describe the limits of money so beautifully:
"Money can buy you a bed but not sleep. Money can buy you a clock but not time. Money can buy you a book but not knowledge. Money can buy you a position but not respect. Money can buy you medicine but not health. Money can buy you blood but not life." Similarly power is of little use without peace. Who could have been more powerful than Hercules or Hitler? But neither of them had peace. So in conclusion, it can be said, we should be very careful in making a decision between money and other important things in life.
Culture
Culture and traditions were actually made for the convenience of the people in the long past by the then wise people. Traditions are our past. Our joys are associated with the traditions. For example all the festivals that we love celebrating are nothing but traditions. They are an integral part of our society. For example, take any tradition and analyze it; you will find it has many wholesome benefits. For example, take the tradition of going to a temple/mosque/church/or any religious place. It connects us to our roots. As we go to the temple, it makes us realize the supremacy of God; it makes us spiritual.
Another example is being respectful to elders. Our traditions teaches us to be courteous and respectful to our elders, teachers, or any stranger; by being respectful we not only gladden the elders, but also gladden ourselves. They give us many favours in return. For example, they bless us. They teach us. They are always there with their love and care when we need them. We also earn a good image in society and people like to be associated with us.
Another blessing of our family is joint family system. This system is only found in India and some other traditional societies. The so called problem-ridden western societies don’t have joint family systems. As a result, there are no problems such as loneliness, depression, going astray, etc.; by default, the joint family system proves healthy and beneficial in the healthy growth of children and provides them with a wholesome environment.
So, we must protect and observe the traditions bequeathed to us by our wise forefathers. We can modify certain traditions for the convenience of people as well as according to the demands of current times. We must never ever disrespect and disregard traditions, for they are for our help, comfort, ease, and happiness.Money:
As in mathematics zero has its own value like that money has its own value. For living a luxurious life for human being money is very necessary thing. As the trees and animals are found in all places, in the same way everywhere we require money also. To live in society and to maintain our position and status in the society, we need money. For Eating food or drinking water, clothing, to enter in the school, or to take medicine for treatment in hospital or for other purposes, we need a lot of money. Now the question arises that how to obtain the necessary money. For this we have to work hard to and study well, so that we can get a good job or, we can open our own business.
In old time, due to rich persons pressure the poor people suffer many problems. Rich people’s did not respect poor people’s and give them salary in small amounts. But now due to government, there is a improve in the salary of poor people’s. Government given the every right to poor people’s also as equally to rich people’s. Now equal opportunity for education is given to poor people’s also, so that they can also get any good job. Many people think that money gives rise to the evil in people's minds; I don’t think so, because thinking is a function of the human body and not the money.
I understand and agree with that the money is very important for our joy, which God has gifted us. It totally depends on people’s how they use money as some people think that nothing is better than love but some person thinks that money is everything and for earning money they went against the laws. They can do any crime act such as murder, robbery, corruption, taking bribe etc. So, it totally depends on person to person how they make use of money.
