This is a wonderful question. We must agree that we all are suffering in this world. Humans are suffering no matter what height they have scaled materialistically. Today we have been able to control forces of nature. Our limits or our scopes have widened astronomically. We have outreached our predecessors in material progress. We have fathomed the depth of the sky and the sea and pioneered great scientific discoveries and geographical explorations. Yet we are the most miserable creatures on earth and we are losing everything, speaking spiritually though we have marveled at inventing new ideas and technologies to make our lives extraordinarily comfortable. We have prolonged our lifespan yet why we are suffering? Why the void within us is getting bigger and bigger? The answer lies in the fact that we are too much comforts driven and hounding something to satisfy our materialist ends
