Back to reading the book "Wanting Enlightenment is a Big Mistake", and it contains a great short story where Zen Master Seung Sahn (ZMSS) and his hippy students are traveling the country in the early 1970s, and they spend one night in Las Vegas. In the wee hours of the morning ZMSS wakes up all his students, drags them into a casino, and says:
"Do you see these people? They are all trapped in hell ... the hell of their own desires."
