Its purpose is to observe the spectacle.

When you serve that purpose, your ego dies but you remain alive, only with no wishes left unfulfilled.

When you are yoked to the spectacle and perceive the spectacle to be your true nature…

…this is the cause of ignorance.

When you, the spectator, are no longer yoked to the spectacle and stand alone, you are relieved of ignorance and stop suffering.

To do this, you must be in a state of uninterrupted discernment.

Follow the seven-fold path to that highest stage of wisdom.

Through discriminative discernment, the light of wisdom arises; through the limbs of yoga, impurities are destroyed.

Eight limbs: don’t’s, do’s, postures, breath control, sense withdrawal, concentration, meditation & Cosmic Consciousness.

Abstain from violence, lying, stealing, promiscuity and unfaithfulness, and greed and materialism.

Abstention from these is the great vow that everyone on Earth, no matter their birth, should aspire to in all places, times, and circumstances.

The observances are cleanliness, contentment, the fire of transformation, self-study, and surrender to the Causeless Cause.

These are the antidotes to the torments that prevent us from living in a constant state of awe, wonder, bliss & conscious awareness.

Harm to others is the greatest torment. The result is infinite suffering.

Be nonviolent and others will give up their hostilities in your presence.

Be truthful and what you say, do, and manifest will be in alignment.

Don’t steal and riches will come to you.

Be chaste and you’ll have more energy.

Be non-materialistic. As you lose your desire for things, you gain a desire for the mysteries of existence.

Practice cleanliness and you will lose your attachment to your body and the bodies of others.
