FOURTH NOBLE TRUTH IS :

THE EIGHTHFOLD PATH

(for getting rid of desire)

WHICH SAYS :

GET YOUR LIFE

STRAIGHT

DO YOUR WORK

DO EVERYTHING

YOU'VE GOT TO DO

WATCH YOUR SPEECH.
WATCH YOUR THOUGHT.
WATCH YOUR CALMNESS.
GET YOUR CALM CENTER GOING.

  

LIVE YOUR LIFE IN SUCH A WAY AS TO GET YOURSELF STRAIGHT, TO GET FREE OF ATTACHMENT THAT JUST KEEPS SUCKING YOU ALL THE TIME

GET FREE OF DESIRE

GET FREE OF DESIRE. IT'S A LITTLE
LIKE A ROLLER COASTER. THIS IS
JUST THE WAY IT WORKS. IF YOU READ
ST. JOHN OF THE CROSS :

"DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL"

YOU KNOW HOW IT IS

YOU'VE REALLY BEEN WORKING ON YOURSELF
AND YOU'RE VERY PURE . . . AND SOME THING VERY
HIGH HAPPENS TO YOU : YOU FEEL LIBERATED

AND THEN : YOUR EGO WALKS AROUND ANS PATS YOU
ON THE SHOULDER : "PRETTY GOOD !
LOOK HOW HOLY YOU'RE BECOMING. "

AND YOU FALL . . . .

A G A I N . . .
