{"quotes":[{"text":"Traditionally men have created a deep split between the inner and outer world, between body and soul, between the material and spiritual world, between love and money and between male and female qualities. The inner man and woman are related to money, creativity and financial abundance.

Sometimes can either the inner man or woman also provide financial support for both sides, while the other side has the idea that it cannot support itself financially.","author":"Swami Dhyan Giten","tags":["body","creativity","financially","inner-man-and-woman","love","material-world","money","relationships","soul","spiritual-workd"],"id":9102,"author_id":"Swami+Dhyan+Giten"},{"text":"We have created a manic world nauseous with the pursuit of material wealth.
