precise the paragraph : When we survey our lives and efforts we soon observe that almost the whole of our
actions and desires are bound up with the existence of other human beings. We notice
that whole nature resembles that of the social animals. We eat food that others have
produced, wear clothes that others have made, live in houses that others have built. The
greater part of our knowledge and beliefs has been passed on to us by other people
though the medium of a language which others have created. Without language and
mental capacities, we would have been poor indeed comparable to higher animals.
We have, therefore, to admit that we owe our principal knowledge over the least to the
fact of living in human society. The individual if left alone from birth would remain
primitive and beast like in his thoughts and feelings to a degree that we can hardly
imagine. The individual is what he is and has the significance that he has, not much in
virtue of the individuality, but rather as a member of a great human community, which
directs his material and spiritual existence from the cradle to grave.

Answer:
Being social animals human beings have their desires and actions bound up with society. In matter of clothes, food, knowledge and belief they are interdependent. They use language created by others. With out language their mental power would not grow. They are superior to best because they live in human society. An individual life left alone from birth would grow utterly beast like. So human society not individuality guides man's material and spiritual existence.
