Given the text's description of life as 'constant misery,' what is the prescribed path to stop the cycle of birth and death?

πŸ“– Chapter 8

The text in Chapter 8 acknowledges that worldly happiness is fleeting like a 'flash of lightning' and is actually 'constant misery.' To halt the recurring cycle of birth and death, the prescribed path involves a fundamental shift in perspective and action. One must first give up attachment to the perishable body, home, and family. Chapter 8 advises to 'consider the body only as a servant,' providing for its basic needs solely to 'apply it toward spiritual progress.' The ultimate solution is to set 'eternal happiness and peace as the goal in the heart' and engage in the 'worship of God in all beings,' which is described as the 'giver of the highest attainment.' This is how one can stop turning in the cycles of birth and death.
