[Shri Anil asked: Jesus said: “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” Swami, why did Jesus say this? Does loving money indicate hating God and vice versa? Please clarify.]
Swami replied: Money is created by God along with this world and God also created the bond with money in the heart of every soul. God uses the soul’s attraction for money to test the soul’s attraction to God. The bond with money is one of the three strong worldly bonds (with money, issues and life-partner) called eṣaṇās.
