a good use and not to waste. In the same way, when a person of integrity acquires lavish wealth⦠his wealth, properly put to use, goes to a good use and not to waste." That is what the Blessed One said. Having said that, the One Well-Gone, the Teacher, said further: "Like water in a haunted place that, without being imbibed, dries up: Such is the wealth acquired by a worthless man who neither enjoys it himself nor gives. But one enlightened & knowing, on acquiring wealth, enjoys it & performs his duties. He, a bull among men, having supported his kin without blame, without blame goes to the land of heaven."
