Vows Of Poverty

Posted by Bruce - in Blog - No Comments

In most major religions the leaders in the middle take a “vow of poverty”. I personally  just read about Hindu leaders that take it to the extreme with sleeping on the floor and  living barely clothed. We assume that when one is poor they are humble and appreciate every item a bit more. They also build a brotherhood and/or sisterhood with those who also take such an oath. I’m sure there are other many wonderful reasons to make such a commitment but one must wonder if it is so important then why don’t the individuals at the top live that way? Maybe these vows are good for a moment or two but a lifetime is something that isn’t heavenly.
