“The purpose of the shoe is to protect the feet when you walk around but then our greed has been exploited, we forget the purpose of the shoe, we place more emphasis on the colour, the shape and the design and then you need one shoe for morning walk and another for the bathroom, the third for the office and the fourth for another thing and for jogging and hiking. So you will need more than a dozen of pairs of shoes for your one pair of feet.”

“In ancient times we were users; we used the commodities in accordance to our needs. Using is not sufficient for the modern market; it needs consumers. Consuming means consuming things much more than the natural need of humanity or of any living being.”

“We have also lost the sensitivity to listen to our own inner voice. Loss of this sensitivity is largely due to the conditioning of modernity that makes us think about ourselves as something independent and artificial. We have distanced ourselves from our own nature, and when we distance ourselves from our own nature we also distance ourselves from nature surrounding us outside. This distance creates fear and conflict.” (The ills of Modernity) (Spirituality)

“You have to find your mindset and how to recover who you are, and remain to be who you are, what you are. And not to be converted through the process of education into something suitable for the market. And you are not marketable, you are a human being, you must understand this. And for that purpose if you need to change your lifestyle, you must have the courage to change your lifestyle in order to benefit the others, the larger population of the planet Earth.”
