Abstract
While on the path of mutual liberation, the human and the spirit’s satisfaction is temporary, a mere placebo to envy and frustration. Their desire for release has created an infinite loop of discontent. For unknown lifetimes, they have become one in the system – the human was the spirit; the spirit was the human. Their hopes have been fulfilled, at the same time, never have been.
Adversity is inevitable. Short lived salvation has a certain worth, yet it is a questionable price to drive the never ending cycle.
