I want that every person should be guaranteed the minimum physical requirements of life, every person should get scope for the full exploitation of psychic potentiality, every person should get equal opportunity to attain absolute truth, and endowed with all the glories and achievements of the world, every person should march towards the Absolute.

All the afflictions in the physical sphere are due to lack of food, clothes and the like. (THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY) People buy food, clothes, etc., with money, and so money in Sanskrit is called artha. (THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY) The main thing is the purchasing power. If the purchasing power of each and every individual is increased, there will be no physical trouble. (THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY)

The psychic afflictions originate from the unman fest world or human mind. In some countries people have abundant supplies of food and clothes, but are they happy?' No, they too suffer from pains and miseries, troubles and diseases. They too mourn the loss of their nearest and dearest ones. These are psychic afflictions. (ARTHA AND PARAMARTIIA) To eradicate them, one must undergo proper psycho-spiritual training so that one's mind can be properly prepared to fight against adverse circumstances. (The: IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY)

The cruder waves should be consumed by subtler ones. The intellectual waves will have to be transmuted into intellectual-spiritual ones. This will protect one from [the psychic afflictions]. This stage is described in the Gita as Dukhesu anudvigna manah, sukhesu vigatasprahah. (The; HUMAN SEARCH /-"OR REAL PROGRESS)

The reaping of consequences of original actions performed by a human being occurs mainly in the psychic sphere. (THE Physical. PSYCHIC AND SPIRITUAL STRATA) Pain and misery is bound to come. (THE PHYSICAL, PSYCIIIC AND SPIRITUAL STRATA) When the affliction and pain are not felt as such, one should not worry about it. (THE PIIYSICAL, PSYCIIIC AII'D SPIRITUAL STRATA)

The third category of affliction is spiritual affliction. Whatever people might say outwardly, they know that they are the progeny of the Supreme Consciousness. (THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY) They know that Parama Purusa belongs to them, and that they belong to Parama Purusa. But in spite of this knowledge they cannot easily attain Parama Purusa. The pain caused by this non-attainment of Parama Purusa is called spiritual affliction. (THE IMPORTANCE: OF SOCIETY) The periphery of the human mind is small, and this small mind remains engrossed with limited objects. The mind must be raised above these limited objects, above the world of limited happiness, into the limitless spiritual world. Limited psychic wealth is the root cause of spiritual afflictions. (ARTHA AND PARAMARTHA) One can overcome spiritual affliction only through spiritual practice, through meditation. (THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIETY)
