saying, "simplicity is the beauty of life." For him, the best way to live is in
simple and natural lifestyle. He believed that the conveniences that
people enjoy disconnect them from the true purpose of living in this life.

relying only on the resources provided by the nature and avoiding an
overreliance on technology. Explicitly, the old man would rather get in
touch with nature and take advantage of its resources than to make use
of the technology.

The elderly guy thinks that the extinction of nature and its damage were
caused by the growth of science and technology. He asserts that people
who are intelligent enough to invent things frequently fail to recognize
their connection to the natural world. that the pain of man is brought
about by their creations, which cause nature to be lost. He is trying to
say that humans don't need modern technology to survive as long as
there are basic human necessities like access to fresh, clean water, food,
and the people who provide those things.
He is averse to change, as well as the ideas of scientific and technological
growth and how they might improve people's lives. He is also closed-
minded. Despite the fact that new discoveries and ideas are much more
effective, he sticks to tradition and traditional, natural ways of living and
refuses to embrace modernisation. He thinks science is terrible, that it
has corrupted everything, including nature and the minds and souls of
people.
