  • Poverty in relationships
  • Spiritual bankrupcy
  • Spiritual causes of poverty
  • The greed factor
  • Conditioning and poverty consciousness.

In exploring solutions to poverty there needs to be an emphasis on the following:

  • Self-wroth
  • Simplicity
  • Creativity
  • Self-reliance
  • The spiritual response to poverty eradication is explored in the Statement of the Brahma Kumaris for the International Year for the Eradication of Poverty. " A Better Quality Life for all People"
