Greed

Just to understand the nature of greed is enough to get rid of it. You are full if you are in tune with the universe; if you are not in tune with the universe, then you are empty, and out of that emptiness comes greed---greed is to fill it, with money, houses, furniture, with friends, lovers, with anything, because one cannot live as emptiness. You have to do something about coming into communion with the whole, so the inner emptiness disappears. With it, all greed disappears.

Greed is not desire, but inner emptiness.
