Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"We cannot spare our valuable time for bodily comforts, sacrificing our real aim of life, self-realization. That is not civilization. That is animal civilization. First consideration is self-realization. Therefore you'll find Vedic civilization very simple because they took it main business, self-realization. The bodily comforts . . . Big, big kings, because they had to rule over the country, some gorgeous type, style of living. They were . . . Ordinary persons, they were satisfied in a cottage. Still you'll find in India in the villages—I think here also the same—they don't mind. I see from the street the original walls. They are not very much interested how to live comfortably. The real purpose of life should be such. At the present moment the civilization is simply for bodily comfort. Divasa-śarīra-sāje. Whole day is spoiled for trying how to make the . . . keep the body in comfortable situation. That is not the purpose of life."
