Hi Jonjo,
Namaste.
Yes, I think we are so busy trying to keep up with the rat race, that we never have time to be still and go back to the basics. I don't think that it's any coincidence that people go to church far less now, than 100 years ago. I don't think that people are any happier though for all the mod cons and extra money etc. Kind of ironic really, that all the modern inventions that we have today, to make our lives easier and yet we still seem to have less time and not more for the things that really matter in life.
I wonder if the penny will ever drop and things might regress a little :)
Love and Light
Helen.
