These Souls with great Material Possessions were allowed this because of Past Good Works in their Previous Life, but now feel there is no need for Spiritual Progress. They are too easily forgetting why they were granted this Material Wealth in the first place. Therefore we must stop them from accumulating more Material Gains to Guide them back to the right path. Mary Todd Lincoln
About This Quote

In the above quote the author is saying that people who have amassed great material wealth in their past life have been allowed to accumulate so much because of their past good works. This has made them used to having a lot of material wealth and there is no need for them to progress spiritually. However, this is a misconception. The truth is that when people have been given a lot in their past life they do not feel the need for spiritual progress when they attain material wealth in future lives. In order to understand this, one needs to understand that there are two types of people.

In the world today, there are those who believe in God and those who don’t believe in God. There are also those who believe in karma and those who don’t. But what about people who don’t believe in God or karma? Well, if a person does not believe in God or karma, then they will only believe in things like hard work and luck. So, what happens if you are born into a world where there are people who do not believe in God or karma? These people will view everything as being based on luck or hard work.

If you are lucky enough to be born into that world then that will be the only way you will see things. It will make you think that all your hard work is not doing anything for you because it is all due to luck or some other external factor. Your hard work will only make you more successful if luck or some external factor has helped you achieve success already . Now, let us look at someone who believes in God or karma.

If you are born into a world where there are people who believe in God then your opinion of hard work and luck will be completely different from theirs. You will think that everything is based on hard work whereas they may think that it is all due to luck or some other external factor. Even though they may be born into the same world as you, they will have different thoughts about what hard work means for them .

Their thoughts on hard work would differ from yours because their thoughts are based on their belief system rather than what has happened to them . Therefore, when these two types of people reach material success after having worked hard all of their lives then one type might think that it was all due to luck while another might think that it was due to good works done by themselves in previous lives . They would both be thinking differently about how they reached success because of their belief system .
