By reading here you accept a few plain terms. They are written in the same spirit as the lab itself — generous, and honest about what this is and is not.
This lab is offered free of charge as an act of goodwill, for study and contemplation. It is not sold, and nothing in it is for sale. You may read it, return to it, and share it with anyone, at no cost — that is exactly what it is for.
You are welcome to read the lab, quote from it, and point others toward it for personal study, teaching, and devotion. If you share a passage, a simple attribution back to the lab is appreciated, so a reader can find their way to the whole of it.
Please do not repackage the lab as your own commercial product, or present its readings as though they were the tradition’s own. The teaching is meant to circulate freely and stay recognisable as what it is.
This is a reading companion and a laboratory for wonder. It is not a substitute for a living teacher, nor for the original text, nor for scholarly, medical, psychological or legal advice. Its aim is the opposite of replacement: to prepare you to step into the original text yourself, confident and glad.
The commentary is interpretive throughout. It is one reading among many and makes no claim to be the final or only word.
The lab is provided as it stands, without warranty of any kind, and is revised continually — content, translations and features may change, and the work is knowingly incomplete in places. To the extent the law allows, those who make it are not liable for any loss arising from its use. If something reads as an error, treat it as an invitation to test it against the original and your own reason.
Above every term written here stands the one the teaching sets for itself: believe a thing only when it is corroborated by your own reason and consciousness. Read freely, doubt honestly, and keep only what your own life confirms.
