The True Self Is The Cause of All Happiness.

A man, raised in the Hindu tradition, has read the Bhagavad Gita, whose opening lines state that ignorance is the cause of all misery. He challenges the idea that if the teachings reach a wider audience, they could become corrupted. Instead, he argues that because the teachings alleviate suffering and misery, they should be accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford them. Rupert expresses his gratitude for these insights and suggests he would rewrite the opening line of the Bhagavad Gita to say that the true self is the cause of all happiness. This reflects the same understanding but presents it in a positive way, aiming to uplift rather than suppress the ego.
