[I follow Sri Rohit Arya on Facebook, and I've found his commentary on the human condition one of the best I've ever come across. This post is a reproduction from his wall.]
Prosperity and abundance is a mindset, before it becomes reality. People do a million small things to reveal an unconscious poverty consciousness even if they wish to have better circumstances. In the days when I would still be foolish enough to personally advise people on such things, when visiting the house I would always ask to see the kitchen. In the kitchen, which was usually a filthy mess, I wanted to see the main knife used. In almost all cases the handle used to be broken and was held together with wire or rubber bands. You are preparing your food, which nourishes you, with an implement that communicates this is all you are worth. Which is not very much.
I am not saying a good knife will bring abundance instantly. But you won’t attract prosperity by using a toota foota piece either. Get a decent knife and then take care of it. And for the love of god have a clean and tidy kitchen In the old days there used to be a puja space in the kitchen so that food was sanctified even as it was being cooked. Today that is too much to ask perhaps, but food eaten from a dirty place will never nourish you into abundance.
I could go on and on, but will restrict myself to one other dead giveaway. Unless it is the clothes used for sadhana , and that too for many years, - never ever wear clothes with holes and patches. Most of all socks. Don’t do it. Don’t train yourself into accepting a poverty mindset. Get good quality clothes even if fewer in number and take care of them. Your mind is very susceptible to what you do and if you keep communicating an acceptance of phate haal circumstances you will always live in such…
