Needs - direct them to the spiritual level where the possibilities are infinite

As long as human beings place such importance on material gain and social position, they will always be in conflict with one another. For there is a limited amount that can be acquired in the physical realm, and it is impossible for the whole world to bathe in opulence. But this does not mean that the whole world cannot be happy, for in fact happiness is not opulence. It takes very few material goods to provide for our existence and for us to be happy, but only if we understand that we must work to orient our needs toward the psychic world, and beyond to the spiritual world, where the possibilities are infinite. There, each of us can eat and drink all we want without fear of being in conflict with our neighbours or being robbed of our wealth.
