Self Indulgence
It seems as if everything man does is for self indulgence. If he works it is because of what he wants, even if he does not care for the work itself. The reason he does it anyway, self indulgence. If he is at play, it is because he wants to, self indulgence. Even if he is a slave, he is co-operating in order to keep from being beaten or killed, even this is a form of self indulgence. If one studies physical or spiritual things it is because one wants to for self indulgence reasons. If one wished to give up self indulgence, it would be for self indulgence reasons. So, studying indulgence goes nowhere at all, we are left with the self part of self indulgence, which is imagination since the self does not exist except in imagination. This is where the work is.
