12.
SELF-DENIGRATION WITH THE PRACTICE OF
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY VIRTUES I condemn my negligence in not being able to adhere to the primary and secondary (spiritual) virtues and repent for and retract from such negligence as well as vow not to act in a manner so as to incur such negligence-borne flaws in future.
CONTEMPLATION OF LONELINESS OF EXISTENCE 13. I am alone, none is mine, nor am I of anyone. The aspirant
must discipline his “Self through such detached disposition and such contemplation of the loneliness of the 'Self'.
14.
The creature is born alone and alone does it meet its end. It dies alone and alone does it liberate by completely shedding the karma-mire.
The creature acts alone and alone does it enjoy the fruit of its action. It is born alone, it dies alone and alone does it go to its destined world hereafter.
16.
This soul of mine, which is endowed with right-knowledge and right-vision alone is truly mine. All other substances, which are characterised by association and dissociation, are not mine.
17.
RENUNCIATION OF ASSOCIATIONS The worldly creatures fall into the cycle of sorrow and misery due to associations with undesirable objects and dissociation from the desirable ones. Therefore, the aspirant must renounce all physical, verbal and mental associations.
