According to Buddha

You may control a mad elephant;
You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger;
Ride the lion and play with the cobra;
By alchemy you may learn your livelihood;
You may wander through the universe incognito;
Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful;
You may walk in water and live in fire;
But control of the mind is better and more difficult.

well i think it’s fine, building jumbo planes.
or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
switch on summer from a slot machine.
get what you want to if you want, ’cause you can get anything.
i know we’ve come a long way,
we’re changing day to day,
but tell me, where do the children play?
