Premanand Maharaj Ji
Why do people with lots of money often lose their peace through lying and deceit?
Deceit adds sin and takes away peace
When wealth grows, ego comes, and lying and deceit enter one's nature. These faults increase sin and bring restlessness. The mind finds peace through giving up enjoyments, not through indulging in them.
Lying, deceit and fraud enter one's nature, and ego certainly comes. When wealth grows, ego comes and these faults come with it.
