You are 100 % correct.
it is the attitude of each one of us which decides weather we should accumulate materials or live a holistic life.

In general development implies the materialistic progress.....how better one has accumulated Gaadi, Bungla, Bank Balance, social status, etc. etc.
None thinks about
how better one has become .... in terms of humanity,
or if the neighbour next door is well or suffering.....
fellow feeling seems to have been faded from earth......

Good spirtual thought, no doubt, but has no value in practical materialistic life, sorry to say that, comrade
