BIBLE VERSES

DOG, BAD, VESCHEROUN

A symbol of the illusory lower will which evidences captivity to the desires. This false desire-will is the inverted reflection of the Love-will of the higher nature. It is nothing but the activity of the mind enslaved by sensations, desires, and passions. It is blind self-assertion of the lower nature: pain and sorrow result therefrom. Its power is proportional to its lack of intelligence.

"Lust and anger shall not seduce, and the dog covetousness shall be destroyed" (Guru Arjan). - ACAULIFFE, The Sikh Religion, Vol. III. p. 129.
