The moon which brightly glows, becomes smaller and smaller and ultimately disappears during its phase. Similarly, the large amount of wealth slowly disappears day by day and ultimately disappears. Also the wealth of the worldly life cause a lot of troubles. So let us all leave aside the worldly wealth and yearn for the holy feet of Lord Shiva so that we could attain him. If we could receive his blessing, then Lord himself will pour down the wealth as a rainy cloud.
