The fear of poverty that so many have is an ancient fear inherited from previous generations. In the West few people suffer from true poverty - that is, a lack of the basic essentials necessary for survival. But many people feel themselves to be poor because we live in a society where the pressure to be rich and to own many possessions is great. Many more live in fear of losing what they have, so that rather then enjoying it they cling to it like a drowning man to a rock. Fear of poverty attracts poverty and can stop us from creating a life of financial security, emotional balance and spiritual happiness.
When you fear poverty you become trapped by obstacles that are attracted to your inner unskilful thought energy, blocking you from prosperity and material and spiritual success. It is important to remove these obstacles from within and to free yourself from the fear of poverty, which can create great stress and unhappiness. The fear of poverty affects not just individuals but mankind as a whole. Businesses, large and small, banks and whole communities are affected by this fear when it is powerful enough.
Poverty and its attendant obstacles take on many forms and because all the people of the human race share the same planet, poverty shifts like the seasons from one form to another. As the poverty-stricken peoples of Africa experience physical deprivation, so poverty in other places takes on an emotional and spiritual form. In the West, though most people have shelter and enough to eat (maybe not in these days of FGC), there is a great deal of spiritual poverty.
Poverty is thought energy of an intense and ancient significance and, as with war, it a thought energy that connects us all directly. All of us are linked by our own personal thoughts, the thought energies of the ancient and recent past, the present, and the possible future that awaits us. It is vital, therefore, that all of us work to overcome the fear of poverty both in ourselves and in the world. We can help those who suffer physical poverty not just by giving food, medication, education, peace-making and political intervention but through the skilful thought energies to support them and create prosperity.
