Civilisations & Religions

Civilisations are a strange thing.


Some civilisations admire the man who pushes his way to the top in any walk of life, whilst some others admire the man who abandons his ego.


Most world religions claim to admire people who abandon their ego, but are embodied by institutions manned by people who strive to push their way to the top.
