Destruction and Liberation

A blast from the heavens destroys the seemingly invincible Tower, and those who dwelled within its walls fall from its heights. Now, the Tower is exposed to the elements, and the dome that crowned its parapets is blown away by the wind. Worldly wealth and the illusion of security mean little to the soul that demands liberation. If you do not seek freedom yourself, the Universe may grant it to you in an unexpected way.

Embrace the Change

When the structure of the Tower collapses, beings with hands folded in prayer emerge from its ruins. Whatever changes occur, remain steadfast in the belief that everything will be alright. Nothing can prepare you for the shock of the exploding Tower, but if you willingly step outside your small enclosure, you can avoid being thrown out of it against your will. See your next phase of evolution for what it is and welcome it.

Key Ideas
