00:00Animals sometimes cross over into cities, don't they?

00:04How do they feel then?

00:06What the hell?

00:08Send me back to where I came from.

00:11But man, man is a lot of money

00:15to somehow get a week to spend in the jungle.

00:18What does that tell you?

00:20Our culture and civilization have gone wrong.

00:24We came from jungle in the hope of doing better in our villages and cities.

00:31But our villages and cities have failed.

00:34We still find in many ways the jungle to be better than our villages and cities.

00:39There is nobody who is not sometimes

00:43seized by a strong desire to return to the jungle.

00:49Does that not happen?

00:51I have often said that animals are in many ways better than human beings.

00:57Man had the potential to either rise above the animal or fall way below it.

01:05Man has continuously been making the wrong choice.

01:08If you cannot build your cities and your social systems on spiritual foundations,

01:21then it is better to stay in the jungle.

01:25If your family, your workplace, your institutions do not run on spiritual grounds,

01:38then they better not run at all.
