The '''material''' world is that which we observe physically surrounding ourselves.
While very important in terms of keeping ourselves alive through the production of [[food]], [[shelter]], etc., it is a diversion from the [[spiritual]] task we are concerned with as seekers and believers in a higher plane. It is [[true]] that we must meet our material needs in order to live in [[God]], but it is more importantly true that we must shy away from material aggrandizement in order to stay pure in our pursuit of the [[Word]].
