It is therefore that great poets, thinkers and sages were very often hard up for things that one could get in everyday life. With all their power they could command gold to come to their house -- and the gold would come, they only had to command it. If they commanded that an army was to come into their power it would come -- the army and anything they would command. Yet they could not give their mind to it, they could only wish for something which was equal to their particular evolution.
