Thinking Kingdoms Riches

More From Meister Eckhart

Wishing will not bring riches. but desiring riches with a state of mind that becomes an obsession, then planning definite ways and means to acquire riches, and backing those plans with persistence which does not recognize failure, will bring riches.
Mean Persistence Mind
Seek first the kingdom of wealth and you'll worry over every dollar. seek first the kingdom of health and you'll sweat every blemish and bump. seek first the kingdom of popularity, and you'll relive every conflict. seek first the kingdom of safety, and you'll jump at every crack of the twig. but seek first his kingdom and you will find it. on that, we can depend and never worry.
Sweat Safety Worry
Astronomy is useful because it raises us above ourselves; it is useful because it is grand; .... it shows us how small is man's body, how great his mind, since his intelligence can embrace the whole of this dazzling immensity, where his body is only an obscure point, and enjoy its silent harmony.
Men Mind Body
The two roads that lead to poverty and riches travel in opposite directions. if you want riches, you must refuse to accept any circumstance that leads to poverty. (the word riches is here used in its broadest sense, meaning financial, spiritual, mental, and material estates).
Spiritual Opposites Two
If you are one of those people who believe that hard work and honesty alone will bring riches-perish the thought; because it's not true. riches, when they come in huge quantities, are never the result of hard work. riches come if they come at all, in response to definite demands, based upon the application of definite principles, and not by chance or luck.
Honesty Believe Hard Work
First of all, i had the desire for that format [silent movie], and then when i was talking to people, i felt that people needed justification. why are you doing a silent movie? is it just for your own pleasure? i felt it was not enough for them so i realized i have to choose the subject that will make things easier for them and to tell the story of a silent actor makes sense for doing a silent movie.
