Modern man dreams and speaks of making his/her life comfortable. But who considers the effort ,worry, risk, and discomfort he/she must undergo to acquire the resources that give him/her this comfort of which he/she is so proud ? Transmutation of values ? One must work with sweat of one's brow to taste the coolness of an ice cube by a costly refrigerator.

Today man/woman is enslaved by machines, taking them for an end themselves instead of regarding them only as a means of assistance and possible control; through pride man/woman has removed themselves from NATURE. By 'simple' and NATURAL means it is possible to have cool water in sun-scorched lands and ice in midsummer. The firefly produces its own light and scoffs at dynamos. The falcon, kingfisher, dive and make light of mechanical acceleration, they hover in the air and literally laugh at gravity. And how does the sparrow, speeding at 60 miles per hour, suddenly stop and fly off in the opposite direction ? The sparrow has no brakes.

The ANCIENTS stayed "close" to NATURE , thought with NATURE and without extraordinary contrivances, they played with "MATTER" !
