This world is perfect just as it is.Now that depends on whether you want to be a Stone Buddha or a Living Buddha. True, we can go into our corner of the world and do our own spiritual thang and find bliss. Or we can engage and strive and help.
Professional Buddhist or Missionary?
WHETHER ONE IS IN ONE'S LITTLE CORNER OR ENGAGING TO HELP DOES NOT AFFECT THE EARTH'S PERFECTION. THE EARTH IS PERFECT REGARDLESS OF WHAT WE DO OR DON'T DO....imho
Of the 32 worlds, this is number 5.
righhhht...lol
...a joke? I hope? 
In a mythological sense i was not joking. In the Hindu setup, we're #5. There are many higher levels of worlds, but this level, since it's physical, can bring about the most advancement.
