Sudama was leading a life of scarcity although he had been Lord Krishna's classmate.
However, Sudama really got associated with the greatness of Lord Krishna, when he surrendered his ego and visited him at Dwarika.
And then Lord Krishna showered his material and spiritual blessings upon Sudama.
Similarly, when Saint Kabir surrendered himself completely in the hands of God, he got back immense wisdom and spiritual enlightenment which made him famous.
When Vibhishana, who was Ravana's younger brother associated himself with Lord Ram, his fortune changed profoundly.
Lord Ram immediately addressed him as the 'King of Lanka', and in due course he actually became the king of golden Lanka.
All these instances point to a simple fact - a close association with greatness is a prerequisite for God's blessings.
