The text mentions 'nooses of death'. What are they, and what happens if someone overcomes them?

📖 Chapter 37

According to the teachings in Chapter 37, the 'nooses of death' are identified as Adharma (unrighteousness), ignorance, anger, and hatred. These are not physical restraints but spiritual and psychological states that bind a soul to suffering and the cycle of existence. The text explicitly states that the individual who manages to cross or overcome these four nooses entirely on their own is able to enter the heavenly world. This implies that freedom from these negative qualities is the very key to attaining a divine state of being, which is described as being free from mental grief and the fear of death.
