There is a lot of wisdom and reading material within,
certainly within Buddhism, and many other traditions, of human nature.
And because of over the centuries the need for material goods, to keep ourselves safe at home,
to have food, water, housing, has been such a concern,
because there was a lot of suffering, middle ages and so forth,
that we are still in that state of just materially being happy;
which is good. We need to all have that;
but as we move forward and advance materially,
we must simultaneously develop and understand the psyche;
and the more material things we have, and if it is out of tune with our psyche,
it is just natural that there will be a loss of sensitivity and feeling.
We will not know how to communicate;
and once we do that then we’re losing the very basic notion of society.
