The wise are not necessarily awake; they just know certain rules well, habitually using these rules to manipulate people, but not realizing that in their own unawareness, while manipulating others, they are merely spokespeople for worldly puppets, exhausting heart and soul, ultimately turning into mere dust in the wind. Some awaken at the end of life to find everything empty, while others think it's worth it until death.
Yet in the next turn of the wheel, the rules created by the wise could become their own shackles. The guillotine painstakingly set might very well decapitate themselves. They treat all beings like swine and dogs, only to possibly become swine and dogs themselves. Only practitioners can steadily choose their paths, while the wise grasp too many rules without understanding the rule of the clear spirituality transformation.
Things reach an extreme, and they turn into their opposites; when everything bottoms out, prosperity returns!
