Guest guest Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Teachings of Swami Vivekananda The householder must earn money with great effort and enthusiasm, and by that must support and bring comforts to his own family and to others, and perform good works as far as possible. If you cannot do that, how do you profess to be a man? You are not a householder even - what to talk of Moksha for you! (V. 448-49) The rule for a householder about the expenditure of his income is, one-fourth of the income for his family, one-fourth for charity, one-fourth to be saved, one-fourth for self. (VI. 114) Source: The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
