The iPhones and Supermarkets are of the dream reality.
A world without consequences, where the Foxconn Factory Workers (or the mines of Congo) do not exist.
And yes, I would definetly say it's a problem if workers in a factory can not afford the goods the factory produces.
Even if the factory is producing high end sports cars or precision engineered industrial machinery?
For that matter I doubt even the CEO of Boeing could afford most of the 'goods' made in his factories.
The CEO of Boeing can probably still afford to take a flight on a plane made by his company, and that probably is true of an average worker of a Boeing factory as well.
So let me rephrase: if people working in a factory can only afford the very basic necessities and the actual goods the factory produces get shipped to the other side of the globe (and waste gets left behind), something is not right.
I mean I kind of get the point you are trying to make, but Foxconn and iPhones aren't really a good example of that.
I'll bite. What's the dream reality?
So, while some aspects of what we know from neuroscience and modern medicine map pretty closely to some eastern practices, those practices are embedded in superstitious religions that are no different from their counterparts in other regions.
The real goal is to procreate. There is no soul or divinity or whatever. While we can say that yes to a degree the world as experienced by my brain is like the concept of Maya and the synthesis of my inputs into consciousness are my subjective reality, that's really it. You can't get from there to "the real goal is to see the perfection of things".
The practices of meditation, visualization, etc do have benefits but they don't have to be rooted in the mysticism that spawned them. In fact, that's one of the things I like about zen. it rejects those notions because of the way that people assign baggage to them and start to worship the baggage instead of doing "the thing".
