Once we move from the 'me' focused demonic state into the 'you' based Divine state, we no longer need to worry about creating wealth, developing a power base, establishing relationships or whatever else we have focused attention upon all our lives. Existence takes care of all this

16.15

आढ्योऽभिजनवानस्मि कोऽन्योऽस्ति सदृशो मया ।
यक्ष्ये दास्यामि मोदिष्य इत्यज्ञानविमोहिताः
॥ १६=१५॥

ādhyo'bhijanavānasmi ko'nyo'sti sadṛśo
mayā yakṣye dāsyāmi modiṣya ity
ajñānavimohitāḥ

I am rich and born in a noble family. Who is equal to me? I shall perform sacrifice, I shall give charity, and I shall rejoice. Thus deluded by ignorance

POWERFUL COGNITION

Existence takes care of us

16.16
अनेकचित्तविभ्रान्ता मोहजालसमावृताः ।
प्रसक्ताः कामभोगेषु पतन्ति नरकेऽशुचौ
॥ १६-१६॥

aneka-citta-vibhrāntā mohajālasamāvṛtāḥ
prasaktāḥ kāmabhogeṣu patanti
narake'śucau

Thus confused by various anxieties and caught in a net of illusions, one becomes too deeply attached to sensory pleasures and falls into hell

POWERFUL COGNITION

Once we move from the ‘me’ focused demonic state into the ‘you’ based Divine state, existence takes care of our needs.
