The purpose of technology is to harness nature to bring information and comfort to human beings.  When spiritual values – human values – are ignored and neglected, instead of bringing comfort, technology brings fear and destruction.

Technology without human values considers nature a dead object.  Science gives insight into the life of nature, and spirituality makes nature come alive.  In the eyes of children there is nothing dead in the world – animals, trees, the sun and the moon – they all have life, they all have emotions, and they all have feelings. But in the eyes of a stressed and ignorant person, even human beings are like robots – objects!

Technology without spirituality is destructive.  Spirituality is the technology of consciousness, and the whole world is the play and display of consciousness.

ACTION AND REACTION

Action comes out of conscious decision.  Reaction comes out of impulsiveness. Impulsiveness creates a chain of karma.  Reaction and non-action both create karma, but conscious action transcends karma.  Although conscious action does not create new karma, non-action can.   For example, a soldier in war and a policeman using tear gas to not create karma, but a doctor who does not give medicine to a patient in need incurs karma.

Through knowledge and devotion, transcend all karma and be free.
