कबीर सो धन संचे, जो आगे को होय। सीस चढ़ाए पोटली, ले जात न देख्यो कोय।
You are not just for the right or left, but for what is right over the wrong. You are not just rich or poor, but always wealthy in the mind and heart. Your wealth is not defined by your capacity to accumulate, rather by your capacity to give away. The most valuable things in your life are always the things that money cannot buy. When we combine the idea of prosperity with an intention for our highest good and the highest good of all life, we create true wealth. A man's true wealth is the good he does in this world, for the righteous deeds are what will remain permanently with us — not one’s family or wealth. Empty handed we come in this world and empty handed we depart, yet the good deeds outlast our mortality. They are like monuments that people build to honor heroes after they've died. Only instead of being made of stone, they're made out of the memories people have of you.
"Kabir says, may we learn to fill our hearts with eternal possessions — that our legacy may live on to the next generation, not as people whose feats are to be praised, but as men and women whose faith in God, love and devotion to those around them cannot be forgotten."
