Science for all its benefits to mankind has made pursuit of pleasure and comfort the over riding principle in life!Decisions of crucial importance regarding the present civilization are being made by persons who have never done a honest day's work in their lives.The vast struggling majority have to tamely abide by the whims and fancies of a small minority.Food,clothing,shelter,work and health have faded into the background and extraneous considerations are deciding the future of civilization.
The human being is not merely a thinking machine but also has emotional and bodily needs.Life is not to become a 'couch potato' relying on robots to do manual labour but also seeking for a balance between 'wants' and 'harmony'.It is extremely important for every person to do physical labour to lead a healthy and happy life!
The history of the world has been an evolution from the hunting and agricultural epochs to the present hedonistic period.Instead of evolving into a better species,mankind is gradually degenerating into dinosaurs and cannibals.
Therefore,it is imperetive that 'balance' be the guiding principle rather than pleasure.
