The Formula For Prosperity There is a Universal law that highly developed societies have followed in the past that brought them prosperity. The law was mentioned in ancient works and in modern ones such as Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill sponsored by an American philanthropist W. Clement Stone. When that law is followed, it brings prosperity in a short time. That law is the law of giving from the heart not expecting anything in return. That last point is very important for this to work. It's a simple method everyone may already be familiar with. What it says in a few words is that greed brings calamity, and giving brings prosperity. Yes, it's that simple. The formula for success and prosperity has been passed on to us through the ages and it's that simple. But how does it work? Well, it's as simple as breathing. When breathing we take air in and then exhale it. Giving translates into freedom. Those that give begin by giving freedom to others. Freedom stimulates dreaming and the creative potential that lays dormant in man. And those stimulate action and growth. Where there's freedom growth follows. And growth translates into prosperity.

In that system of giving the prescribed amount donated to spiritual persons and the poor has been established in ancient times at 10% of earnings. But for example in Poland the Polish authorities have been depriving Poles from attaining prosperity by limiting some of their freedoms and tax deductible donations to religions and charities to a stingy 1%. What does that tell us about the people the Poles have elected to represent them? What does that tell us about the Poles? Now answer for yourself, what is the cause of their many past and present problems?

It's been noticed that Poles complain more then others. But few understand why they're complaining. Complaining has become a national character trait for Poles. But Poles that live abroad don't complain more then others. So, perhaps the reason is that they have many reasons to complain about in their homeland? Prolonged complaining creates other problems. It creates negative subconscious suggestions. But that's another subject for a different article.

Here's two well known quotes from different traditions on giving.

"By making gifts one simply increases one’s wealth."
Mahabharata, Anusasana Parva, Section LVII, page 56
