```

My Lord,

When I exploit Your indulgence,

What happens to me?

“My child,

You are the one to feel and know

What happens when you exploit

My indulgence.”

My Lord,

We all talk about self-indulgence.

What actually is self-indulgence?

“My child,

Self-indulgence drastically reduces

The God-oneness-dream-capacity.”
