The motive simply was and is greed. When realizing this don't fight greed because the motive behind that fight again would be greed. The way out is: Accept greed. And the whole laughable spiritual trip will end. Be greedy ! Be just like everyone else. The moment you want to be different than others it is vanity. Don't fight vanity. Just be it. Be what you are. Stop all that spiritual nonsense. There only is what is and not what should be. The should be only will cause feelings of guilt because you failed and sooner or later it will drive you crazy and diseased.
