The way we describe poverty is depended upon certain standards that we have set ourselves. Who is rich and who is poor are opinions /standards set upon us by certain societies. In present society man has created so many things for our well being, so when somebody cannot afford to have them things is considered as poor. what’s poverty in one side need not be considered the same in another section of the society. our standards of prosperity are completely unrealistic and ecologically
unsustainable. in spite of all the wealth and conveniences that science has heaped upon us, people in the cities are still living; not knowing how to live.-sadhguru
