Former UN Secretary General U Thant often said that spirituality
had to catch up with materialism, science and technology. In order
to illustrate his point he used to tell the following story:
One day a party of native bearers in Africa suddenly stopped, discharged their loads, sat down and refused to go forward. When asked for the reason their leader said: "our bodies have gone too fast for our souls. We must wait for our souls to catch up with us." I believe the whole western society should learn from that story.
