Swami Mukundananda

Why do material wants never come to an end?

The disciple and the mouse

A disciple married, had children, kept more cows, and laborers were needed until a whole little village had come up. Material desires continue without end, and we don't even know what to ask from God.

The disciple said, Guruji, all this happened because a mouse used to come and nibble at my loincloth. So material desires continue without end.
