Western civilization attractive to the raksasa class

[Guest guest]

....must be engaged to work hard, produce money and enjoy sense

gratification. Hog civilization. We are restricting that "Don't work hard

like hog and dog or animals, just satisfy your minimal necessities of life,

save time and (indistinct) spiritual understanding. This is our mission.

Their mission is, "What is this nonsense, spiritual understanding? Simply

some sentiment, waste of time. Produce, enjoy, invent so many things for

sense gratification." Western civilization. And this is very attractive to

the raksasa class. Eat, drink, be merry and enjoy. This is the raksasa

mentality. As soon as there is television, or similar invention, they become

very much enthused. They purchase and sitting down, they waste their time. I

have seen in America the old man of family, one dog, one television, simply

wasting time. And 50 cents for eat. How they are wasting the valuable human

life. How they are kept in the darkness. This is life. I have seen

television. All some fictitious stories.
