Taking a cue from Goenka’s tweet, this is what a Twitter user shared:

In reply, the Chairman of the RPG Group tweeted:

“During these times of adversity, nature teaches the meaning and ways of living a simple life with profound joy and gratitude. If still the flashiness outshines the true happiness, nothing can help...Sir, you are a legend, and your tweets are inspiring, as always,” wrote a Twitter user. On this tweet too, Goenka replied and wrote “Thanks.”

Here’s what film producer Nila Madhab Panda replied:

“Rightly said Sir, When life surrounds itself with too much of materialistic things, humans start looking for a simpler way of life. The joy of sleeping under a mango tree far exceeds the joy of sleeping in an air conditioned five star hotel,” expressed an individual.
