America the richest nation of the world having all facilities for material comforts, is producing a class of men completely confused and frustrated in life. I have found out that the cause of their unhappiness is not material want, but it is insufficiency of spiritual comforts

Letter to Japanese brothers and sisters -- Los Angeles 10 March, 1970: At the present moment the human civilization has advanced very much to live comfortably so far our material necessities are concerned, but still we are not happy because we are missing the point. Simple material comforts of life are not sufficient to make us happy. The vivid example is America, and not to mention of other countries. The richest nation of the world having all facilities for material comforts, is producing a class of men completely confused and frustrated in life. I have dealt with them very intimately, and I have found out that the cause of their unhappiness is not material want, but it is insufficiency of spiritual comforts.
