In the yogic tradition, there are three kinds of bondage, " trividho bandhah"--two of them are vaikrtika bandha, renunciates becoming attached to objects of comfort and dakshina bandha renunciates who become dependent on money from lay people. These are warning signs that a renunciate is still in bondage.

It is particularly interesting to note the stories of Guru Dev 

outrightly refusing material donations to his ashram. If fact he 

gained the title 'Ananta Shree Vibhushit' - Adorned with Limitless 

Wealth - because of the mysterious way his life appeared supported in 

all respects.
