Is it wrong to desire Material things..?


Question


Is it wrong to desire Material things..?
Or is it ok as long as you dont overindulge in it..


Answer


I dont think we should feel guilty for wanting to have nice things but we shouldnt become greedy either, I think that everything is fine when we are in balance and everything is wrong when its unbalanced. At the end of the day we wont be taking any of these things with us once were gone, so we should not get overly attached to the material things, they are there to make us happy and more comfortable but its a superficial happiness and usually doesnt last for a long period of time. We shouldnt depend solely on materialistic things to define us or bring us happiness because we will constantly be in the store seeking more happiness or trying to fill some void. This all may sound basic but I know plenty of people who rely on materialistic things for their happiness.
