Monday, February 27, 2006.
No one has brought anything with him at birth; nothing is
taken with him at death. During one's lifetime, only a
digestible quantity of food can be consumed; one cannot
wear more clothes than he can bear; no one use land more
than the volume required for his body, i.e. standing requires
9"x9", sitting requires 3'x3', lying requires 1'x6'.
All needs and desires are fulfilled only by the labor of
millions in society ; all items of one's manufacture are
only going to the society. These facts should be taught to
all in the educational curriculum itself and often reminded
throughout life.
