“Since man does not create physical matter, those who handle material objects in the production process are not producers in that sense. Economic benefits result from the transformation of matter in form, location, or availability (intellectually or temporally).

On the other hand, when our mind is restless and upset, the most comfortable physical facilities do not make us happy.” MindKindTwoStatesHandsPainFormPleasureResultsMaterialsDevelopmentComfortComfortableTransformationEndureCalmHappySuperiorsUpsetLatterTemporaryMinorsBeing HappyRestlessDiscomfortFacilityThoroughSpiritual Transformation Author:Dalai Lama
