Encouraging balanced spiritual living

**Do WeNeed to Be Monk-Priest, etc, and Leave the Material Life?**

The answer is clear. We must survive to work—earn a living or preserve the family legacy. The hard-earned legacy from our parents is a treasure that future generations must uphold, not abandon in a quest for spiritual enlightenment by retreating into solitude as monks- priests etc

Life is about balance, not greed. If you contemplate the path of a monk or priest, ask yourself, "Is it truly relevant?" The teachings of Gurus, Prophets, Spiritual Leaders, and Gautama have already illuminated how to live a harmonious life.

Wealth is a blessing; instead of renouncing it, family members should embrace the responsibility of carrying on their legacy. We are brought to this earth to thrive, and to thrive, we must work for our sustenance.

If your calling is to teach religion, embrace it, but do so while instilling the spiritual values instilled by great teachers, such as Prophets, Gurus, Gautama, Jesus,etc.

The wisdom of the spiritual path is a gift for all humanity, meant to be shared across generations, transcending the boundaries of faith, whether Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or Hindu. According to their religion books, each religion guides humanity toward integrity and virtue.

Even those who choose the monk or priestly path must acknowledge the necessity of sources to sustain their journey—food, medicine, and travel. Where will this support come from?

Remember, the ancient teachers who pioneered the spiritual path adorned themselves in simple robes during a time without modern conveniences. Do we need to replicate this in our technologically advanced era?

Think deeply.
