Parents and children will have a major confrontation in this life.\nIf the children win, the family remains harmonious.\nIf the parents win, the children die. This is reality.\n\nAbsorb the child's attack,\npatiently wait for the child to complete the fatherly role spiritually,\nand willingly bow to admit defeat,\nallowing yourself to become the child's stepping stone.\nTop-level cognition\n\nWhen you no longer need anyone to redeem you,\nyou are complete.\nWhen you no longer need to redeem anyone,\nyou are free.\n\nSpiritual parricide\nrefers to no longer worshiping authority,\nindividuals moving towards independence and autonomy, realizing the self.\n\nSpiritual matricide\nmeans no longer craving symbiosis,\nnot bearing the mother's issues and karma,\nwithout any guilt in your heart.\n\nCompleting these two spiritual upgrades,\nonly a relaxed and decisive self remains.\nIn all relationships, and beyond all relationships,\na person stands between heaven and earth,\nlonely and cool,\nbut also mighty and powerful,\nvast and distant.
