At the present moment people are suffering. Not at the present moment–always. Anyone who is in this material world, he is full of anxieties, because material wants cannot be satisfied at any time.

So our business should be how to get out of this material energy and put ourself under the spiritual energy. Then our life will be fully satisfied.
