In the present education there is hardly a few persons who are actually in knowledge, because they have neglected the spirit side of the activity. They have taken only the material side of the activity. So if you come to according to the Bhagavad-gītā, then it is a civilization of fools. They are giving too much stress on the motorcar, machine, and not to the driver. The driver is neglected. This is foolish civilization. Man is neglected.

I think in my childhood, when I was a student, Scottish Churches College, I read one magazine from your country. I think that magazine is still current, Scientific American. Is there any magazine? Yes. In magazine I saw one picture. I think that skyscraper was beginning at that time. A man was working very heartily, and the picture is there that for manufacturing matter, a soul is being killed. You see? That is material civilization.
