1. Preface
Since the early days when the Supreme Being sent forth divine spirits to create humanity, the innate goodness of human nature has been tainted by worldly existence.
The physical body becomes enamored with illusions, inclining towards greed and material possessions, nurturing the desire for long-lasting enjoyment. In this struggle, humanity often succumbs to negative tendencies.
The divine spirit must detach itself from the illusory realm of the physical body to return to its sacred and primitive source. To achieve this separation from the earthly body, one requires the assistance of the Supreme Divine for the illumination of spiritual insight.
A life directed towards the wondrous Supreme Divine will naturally attract the harmonious vital energy, guiding the soul towards enlightenment.
Therefore, the mind is the master. The mind gives rise to tendencies, and the body follows accordingly.
A mundane mind leads to worldly tendencies. A sacred mind leads to heavenly tendencies, those minds are created by humans themselves.
The heavens and the earth are inherently indifferent, such is the nature of human life.
