Why materialistic countries are wealthier than Spiritual India?
A Girl devotee (Name hidden) asked like this:
“Some one said all the countries where people eat non veg are more Flourished viz USA and UAE life is better there so how is it that eating non veg is bad …. If it would have been there should have been more suffering there. These countries have better quality of life n happier society
And hence he prefers to eat nonveg contrary to indian belief of not eating So how do we explain”
REPLY:
Ha Ha.. This question made me smile.
What do you mean by the terms HAPPIER SOCIETY?
Why do you think that materialistic countries are wealthier than Spiritual India?
Do you think that having sufficient money is a happier life?
Do you know that even a farmer, fisherman, or any daily earner is eating with happiness compared to the richer people?
Why?

Because, the costly diseases like heart attack, diabetes, etc., come only for rich people with less physical works, but not to the hard working persons?
You ask why Cultural India is not wealthy, but, meat eating countries are wealthy.
Do you think that all the people in western countries happy though they have more money and comforts?
Then, why there were hippies in the west who became dissatisfied even after all the comforts?
Why there are frustrations among people?
Why there are more divorces?
Why there are more shoot and kill incidents even among the students?
Why there are more drug addicts?
Do you think drinking wine or beer in the place of water a happy life?

Do you think divorcing and marrying ‘again and again’ a happy life?
Do you think exposing the bodies by wearing a short dress a happy life?
Do you think sending the elderly people to ‘old age homes’ a happy life?
Do you think having uncontrolled sex a happy life?
Do you think spending through credit cards and expecting salary to pay them is a happy life?
Do you think having dating even in the age of 11-13 a happy life?
Then, how do you say that western people are happy?
Do you know how satisfied the wives of Indian rural men though they do not get expected life? Because they have been given patience and the theory of karma. So, they accept the life they have got and live happily.

They feel happy in seeing their children successful in life.)
They feel happy in getting the advice of elderly people and OLD AGE HOMES are less in India compared to the western countries.

Most of them feel happy in marrying a boy/ girl chosen by the parents and they believe that the parents are caring them.
They feel happy in living with the people.

They feel happy in living with a single person throughout the life and loyal to him.
This is the country where purity of mind and body are considered as the prime requirement for marriage.
This is the only country in which the karma theory and strong scientifically verified spiritual practices are done.
This is the holy land where the Supreme personality of Godhead Krishna descends in His every visit to earth.
Don’t think that having material opulence is a happy life.
They can not match in happiness even a saintly person or a sanyasi has in India.
I can list many aspects like this. But, I am stopping with this to avoid length.

I do not agree with most of the Indian people starting to follow western culture,of late. But, you are still thinking that Indians are not happy.
ONLY BECAUSE THE INDIANS HAVE STARTED TO FOLLOW WESTERN CULTURE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA ARE FEELING DIFFICULTIES NOW A DAYS.
THEY WERE VERY HAPPY AND SELF-SATISFIED DURING THE VEDIC PERIOD AND EVEN in the 20th century.
So, please do not compare India with the west.
India is suitable for getting elevated from TEMPORARY material life towards ETERNAL spiritual life.
Western life style is to attach more with TEMPORARY material bondage.
So, for those who like to be materially rich and do not bother about getting liberated, the west may be good.
But, for those who like to lead a life to get elevated to the spiritual platform, India alone is the best country.

So, which is better for you?
REMEMBER:
ATTACHMENT, ie, ADDING MORE WEALTH IS NOT THE REAL HAPPINESS.
DETACHMENT, ie, SAYING “NO” TO THE MATERIAL WEALTH IS REAL HAPPINESS.
DETACHMENT GIVES ONLY ETERNAL HAPPINESS and ATTACHMENT GIVES BOTH TEMPORARY HAPPINESS AND PAINS.
Hereafter do not think why Cultural India is not wealthy, but, meat eating countries are wealthy.
The West is concentrating caring the bodies; India is caring the soul.
Feel proud to have taken birth in India.
Feel pained to see the Indians starting to follow the west.
Ending this with the memories of my childhood period in 20th century in which India was happier than today.
Hope you are clear why materialistic countries are wealthier than Spiritual India.
