Every spiritual movement utilises the “Sri ” principle in the form of beauty , knowledge, and material opulences within their preaching methods. This is seen worldwide and displayed in various cultures with beautiful buildings ,  beautiful and highly educated followers , as well as the opulences of much wealth associated with spiritual movements.  Every opulence is a benediction from Divinity and His consort the Supreme Goddess of fortune , who manifests Herself in different forms , as written on by Srila Jiva Goswami in his Bhagavat Sandarbha.

However ,  to gain the real  wealth of spiritual  trancendental wisdom , one requires benedictions beyond the external opulences . External opulences bring benedictions of many  kinds but are equally liable to bring many entanglements . The entanglements of false pride and false prestige, for instance. The person lacking opulences should humbly recognise the opulences of others , but whether one has or does not have material opulences , the supreme opulences that are benedicted by Srimati Radharani have been made  especially available , via Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu in current times. One should use everything in spiritual life and reject little . Centre everything correctly under the directions of the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas within the param para . Srila Sanatana Gosvami kept a wish fulfilling touchstone in the garbage bin , and the Goswami’s voluntarily accepted external poverty , but what astounding knowledge and trancendental riches along with  every opulence did they have in their hearts ? All opulences are excellent when accepted in humility and used in the direct services God , and for the pure devotee such opulences are awaiting to serve them .

Srimad Bhagavatam 1.8.26

janmaiśvarya-śruta-śrībhir
edhamāna-madaḥ pumān
naivārhaty abhidhātuṁ vai
tvām akiñcana-gocaram

Translation

My Lord, Your Lordship can easily be approached, but only by those who are materially exhausted. One who is on the path of [material] progress, trying to improve himself with respectable parentage, great opulence, high education and bodily beauty, cannot approach You with sincere feeling.

This verse brings focus to how spiritual consciousness can develop in full ..
