Chap. 1. Episode 1 (part 10)
Modernist materialistic society is supposed to have successfully settled the people within the safe limits of cities and towns far away from the ‘wild’ world of nature.
And provided them with safe, fenced homes fitted with all the amenities of modern life such as piped water, electricity and lights, cooking fuel, indoor toilets, beds, furniture and communication aids, entertainment outlets etc.
We see today that the so-called human development over the last century is actually a brutal onslaught on the human psyche, the sanctity of our natural environment and planet Earth.
The greed and ignorance of modern society has turned life on Earth unbearable for truth seekers and compassionate beings, besides causing the decimation of our ecosystem.
