The greatest evidence of demoralization is the respect paid to wealth.

Forms of Wealth
To money is attributed wealth
But the open truth of wealth
Is, It is not the only kind of wealth—
There are also other forms of wealth!
Good health is the best form of wealth
Forging rich links in relationships is wealth
Spontaneous love for all life forms is wealth
To have enthusiasm in life is wealth.
Acquiring life-long learning is wealth
Experience and wisdom in life is wealth
Meeting new people is also wealth
Visiting new places too is authentic wealth.
The quest to explore something is wealth
To have a positive mind-set is wealth
Existence of deep internal peace is wealth
Early morning waking up with joy is wealth.
Possessing high self-respect is wealth
Having strong spiritual connection is wealth
There exist so many types of wealth
Constitute all these and you're with full wealth!

The society is to blame.
As long as the people respect
Anyone for wealth and luxury,
The tendency to amass wealth
Even by fraud is unstoppable.
As and when the people respect
Anyone for true and simple life,
There would be no demanding urge
To grow rich and assume respect.

No Respect
Respect,
Always everybody looking for some
Respect,
Who do you think youre gonna get it from
Respect,
Anybody here deserving of none
Respect,
Tell me what makes you think
Youre not the one
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
No respect, no respect none
Respect,
Why be concerned with
Public adulation
Respect,
Pat on the back crying
For attention
Respect,
Finding out what it really
Means to me
Respect,
Honor comes only after
Humility

The Best Wealth A Person Should Possess
Even ordinary persons, with no respect
and manners, may have money and wealth
which may not be standard and eternal;
The best wealth,
among the all types of wealth,
a person should possess... is nothing but
a kind heart, grace and mercy to others.(ThirukkuRaL 241)

A Man Should Have Respect
A man should have respect
His case may not accord him that,
Nor his situation
Yet he must feel self worth.
A man must have respect
He may be poor
And destitute
But he is a child of God.
He is a spark of the Spirit
He is a wonder in himself
He is unique
The greatest of animals.
A man will have respect
Primordiality may refuse him it
But he will strive all he may
To clinch it still.

Enrich Your Society
Respect for age; respect for ranks.
Respect for skills; give room for weakness.
Ignore for wealth; ignore for power.
Thus one can enrich one's society.

Clear As Its Ever Been
I remember all your sentiments protesting.
All my simple needs and with requests met.
Now the evidence is clear,
As its ever been...
You never meant to keep my requests met.
You never intended that respect.

Sonnet: Respect
Respect your elders all if they deserve;
Respect your servants too who you well serve;
Respect your father for tilling the soil;
Respect your mother for her love and toil.
Respect all teachers who gave you knowledge;
Respect your friend who saved you from the ledge;
Respect all good minds who advised you good;
Respect the man of God who gave soul’s food.
Respect all strangers who were all Godsends;
Respect your foes who taught you self-defense;
Respect those evil men who you troubled;
Respect the tempter who well you misled.
Respect your conscience which tells you what’s right;
Respect your God who is your Friend and Guide.

Respect Sows Peace
Do not restrict respect
to age because someone is old
show real respect to all
but respect most
heart motivation
of people worthy
of that respect.
Respect is given
respect is earned
respect enriches
respect ennobles
graces civilization
elevates humanity
sows seeds of peace.
