We have to go back in our history. India has done this kind of revolution in the minds of the people and that is why we have the Ashoka Chakra and the Stupa as our national symbols. We shall use the same technique Ashoka used, namely, Vipassana. India needs a complete reconstruction of the moral, religious (?), social, educational, political and economic fabric. It does not need funds, does not provoke resistance. It spreads goodwill and will be selfsustaining in the growth phase. Misery Nobody can change the laws of nature. Therefore, nutrition, hard work, good health cannot be avoided. We have to work to get them. But in working to remove the physical causes of poverty and misery, we come across great obstacles in the form of attitudes, like lack of concern for fellow beings, greed, corruption, hatred, violence etc. These are the real causes of misery in this world; if the causes that lie in the minds are taken care of, the physical causes can be removed faster. Wimately misery is a state of mind arising from our not getting what we want or having to bear what we do not want. A miserable mind causes suffering not only to itself but also creates a bad environment for others. Gandhiji said, there is enough for everybody's need but not for everybody's greed.
