sarvam jñāna-plavenaiva vṛjinaṁ santariṣyasi🔗

At the spiritual level, the concept of sin does not exist. It is a creation of manmade institutions, of societal and political organizations to control others through fear. When you have the true knowledge, the intelligence of why you are doing what you are doing, the very knowledge will make the action divine, the act will no longer be just a ritual but a means to reach the Ultimate. Automatically, you will cross the ocean of miseries because misery itself is a result of ignorance of your true self. When 'spirit' is added to a 'ritual', it becomes 'spi-rituality'.
