Be well-fed spiritually! Spiritual starvation is an awful thing; it is the worst thing.

I think the comment about India, near the end, is romanticizing to a very large extent. The social pathologies of India ... rape, abortion and infanticide, child prostitution and abuse, inter-communal violence on a large scale, massive corruption, abandonment of the elderly and handicapped ... are far from unique to India. However, they are not consistent with this rose-colored attribution of joyful spiritual advancement.

Matthew 4:4 But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”

Scripture, the word of God, is food for the spirit and soul.

Spiritual hunger is even worse than physical hunger.
