Mayadhaari

Being a Mayadhaari is not about being rich. It is about putting your desires and motives in to the physical world. For that matter, even a hermit who possesses no money and wears scant clothing, if puts his desire of seeing God in an idol (physical matter), shall be called a Mayadhaari.
                  Everything that is to be seen through the eyes (i.e. the physical world) is Maya, and the one who perceives what is being seen, alone is not Maya. Therefore, our endeavor should be to connect with ourselves (i.e. Aatam-Darsan), than to desire the physical things. The physical necessities for life sustenance, are the things needed for the body (Maya again), and should never become the desires or motivation for the Aatam, i.e. you.
