There is no problem if graha (things getting accumulated)…
““There is no problem if graha (things getting accumulated) does not turn into parigraha (acquisitiveness; that what takes one away from the Self). Parigraha leaves when murchha (spiritual unconsciousness) leaves. And when you become a non-doer (akarta), arambha (beginning of any action) leaves. Kevalgnan (absolute knowledge) occurs when arambha-parigraha leaves.””
