Monarchy
In Vedic literature, the king is considered to be the representative
of God. In this age, however, with the corruption of the principles
of religion, monarchy decayed and is now finally abolished. It is to
be understood that in the past, however, people were more happy
under righteous kings. - BG 10:27, purport -

Money may be offered to a devotee,
but he should not struggle to acquire it.
If automatically, by the grace of the Supreme,
money comes to him, he is not agitated.
