THE FRAUD OF RESIGNATION: WHY POVERTY WAS NEVER GOD'S WILL

The Fraud of Resignation: Why Poverty Was Never God’s Will

To understand true spirituality, we must first identify the fundamental distinction between the master's personal choice and the system's social imposition.

1. The Choice: The Path of the Master

In Hinduism, we see the examples of Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Ramakrishna; in Christianity, the example of Lord Jesus and Saint Francis of Assisi. For them, poverty was a radical and active choice—an extreme form of the Yoga of Renunciation (Sannyasa).

  • An Act of Power, Not Passivity: They stripped themselves of material goods to prove—to themselves and to the world—that true security does not reside in labor or money, but in the Self (Consciousness). They traded material work for spiritual work (service and teaching).

  • Founded on Dignity: These masters never lost their dignity. They were respected by the community because they offered a higher good and lived based on Grace and sharing, not on humiliation.

2. The Imposition: The Corruption of the System

The idea that a person must accept misery without dignity as "God’s will" or a "consequence of karma" is a perverse distortion of spirituality.

  • A Tool of Domination: The colonial imperialist pattern and the "Aryan pattern of domination" impose doctrines used to justify injustice. Religious elites use these to keep the vulnerable submissive, effectively saying: "Your misery is your fault; accept it so as not to disrupt our order."

  • Distorted Karma: The concept of Karma is not a burden from the past; it is, above all, Action in the Present (Karma Yoga). True Karma Yoga requires the individual and the community to work actively to alleviate suffering, seek dignity, and promote justice.

  • The True Will of God: In the pure message of Jesus and Francis of Assisi, God’s will is Dignity and Love for one's neighbor. It is never passive humiliation. The prophets' call is always for social justice and the condemnation of the powerful who oppress the weak.

Conclusion:

Refuse to accept this fatalistic passivity. Follow the Path of Good in its most authentic and ethical form. True spirituality must lead to liberation and dignity, never to resignation in misery.
