Trust God completely and he will solve all difficulties. Faithfully leave everything to Him and He will see to everything.
If we celebrate the festival with the objective of divine wealth then we will get an experience of supreme Bliss or anand and the desire for worldly inferior pleasures will automatically start reducing, leading to our true Liberation.
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
Why impress false religion on the world? It will be of no service to it. Why run about for the sake of wealth? You cannot escape from death… Think, O think, you thoughtless fool, you shall have in the end to depart alone.

The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union.

The greatest comforts and lasting peace are obtained, when one eradicates selfishness from within.
