Grandchild we lived before your age .Because of our ignorance, we did not know pollution, stress, traffic jams destruction of forests, streams and hills we feared God and nature now nature fears you and money is your new God Shanmughalingam
The child is very inquisitive and puzzled about how was it possible for the grandparents to live in a time where there was no modern facilities and how it must have been very frustrating for them to live with menial tools.
The grandparent says, progress has made those living in the modern times worship money as it is only with money that such gadgetry can be bought. Ironically, however, such conveniences come with a price to spirituality and peace of mind.

THE GRANDPARENTS
Grand child we lived before your age. Because of our ignorance, we did not know pollution, stress, traffic jams destruction of forests, streams and hills
The grandparent says that they lived at an
earlier time than the grandchild. However, since they were not educated, they didnt have to deal with pollution, stress, traffic jams and the damage of the natural environment.
Meaning: Now, nature is being threatened by you and money has become your main focus.
