grains all across the world will almost be halved.

"Life, the Truth, and Being Free"
The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong

person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
