In his book ‘How to Live Without Fear and Worry’ K. Sri Dhammananda stated ‘For the sake of material gain and comfort, modern man does not listen to the voice of nature. He wants too much out of life, and because of that he ‘cracks up’. He is made to believe that ‘success’ means being able to do everything and be ‘the best’ in all these activities. Of course, this is physically impossible. His mental activities are so preoccupied with his future happiness that he neglects the needs of his physical body and ignores the importance of the present moment for what it is worth. This inability to get our priorities right is one of the main causes of all our frustration, anxiety, fear and insecurity’.
