Lesser the number of wants, greater will be your freedom.

A person filled with greed, fear and anger cannot achieve anything in this world. Excessive desires degrade man. You cannot give up desires entirely. But there should be a limit to them. When they exceed the limits you will go astray. Desires are dreadfully dangerous. Today's enemy may become tomorrow's friend and vice versa. But desire and greed are your perpetual enemies. They will haunt ceaselessly. The Gita clearly declares desire as the Nithya-shathru (eternal enemy) of man. Hence keep desire under control. Embodiments of Divine love! Always remember, the person without egoistic pride will be liked by everyone (Maanam hithvaa priyo bhavathi). The secret to be free from grief is to be without hatred (Krodham hithvaa na sochathi). One who has given up desire is free from worries (Kaamam hithvaa aarthona bhavathi). If you overcome greed you will become happy(Lobham hithvaa sukhee bhavathi).
