Mother Earth is suffering from the relentless onslaught of

the spiritually dead human majority for whom the word

'profit' means 'to increase your money'.

To the spiritually alive minority - a person might consider

his life to have been 'profitable':

*If as a child he was blessed to have good grandparents and

parents - ones who set a moral foundation in his life by

their own examples of generosity, morality, respect for all

forms of life, and steadfast love and unity in the familycircle.

*If he was fortunate to have grown-up with good siblings -

ones who were generous and who freely gave their support,

love, and counsel to him whenever he needed it all

throughout his life.

*If as a young man he married a good wife - one who was

generous, faithfull, loving, and a good mother to theirchildren.

*If the children they made together were good - generous,

respectful to their elders, happy, and loving human beings.

*If during his lifetime he found good friends - ones that

remained true and loyal to him from the first day they met

- until the end of his life.

*If in his life he was granted the honour of being able to

help many others less fortunate than himself.

Then indeed his life might be considered to have been a

truly profitable one.
