Sing and listen to the qualities of the divine – kirtan and satsung and drumming – celebrate everything and everyone being worthy of love.
Be a sun and generate light.
Be free from the bondage of orthodox doctrine, tradition, and social and religious teachings – the divine is direct and spontaneous, not mediated through anyone or anybody.
