Greed Is Very Strong

When greed comes into business, then principles go out of the window, and then sooner or later it becomes worse and worse. One gets implicated in sinful activity, and the whole world is operating like that.

In India, if you buy fruits-that apple that you didn’t check is a rotten apple. That’s just how it is. If you buy each one, you just check it to make sure it is all right. In the West, they just pack four apples with cellophane on top, and two of them are rotten and there is nothing you can do about it! So the cheating is a pre-packed cheating - all pre-arranged. There’s no need anymore for any shopkeeper to do it on the go. In the supermarket it’s already built in the system.

So the cheating propensity is all over the world, because greed is very strong. Naturally greed is a predominating principle, because to enjoy at the expense of others- that is greed!
