Journey

The story should go like this:

Unexpectedly and involuntarily, our soul set off for a lonely journey to the distant heaven. But, we are not alone to begin with; our faculty also includes scientific knowledge (with a broken leg), our worldly moral, and our asura - greed and jealousy.

Of course, these little creatures are not meant for that distant heaven. If anything, they are hindrance of our soul - and they fight with each other. As you would expect, any broken knowledge succumb to our asura early in the odyssey. Our inner moral tries to resist asura - but it is to no avail.

But asura could not dominate our faculty for long, and it falls in front of the bigger beast hiding inside our faculty - the tiryagyoni (the Sanskrit word for animal), our flesh-and-blood desire to live.

And there comes the problem: Although we can do away with our asura, how could we possibly arrive at that distant heaven if we have to stay with our own inner beast?
