<19> The sign representing Pure Consciousness is the sign of Haree Om Shrii Hung ( ) which means “The Goal Of The Life Is To Be(come) DIVINE.” <20> This sign consists of four parts. The dot ( ) in the middle is a representation of the beginning of all things and also of the beginning of the spiritual struggle or operative power of the three gunas (“The Word”). The I-Ching ( ) represents the dual nature of all things in the universe (positive and negative), and also the spiritual powers of the three gunas in the operative state (awakened by the raja guna). <21> The two other parts are the Expanding Lotus ( ) and the sign ( ) which is called the Lotustica. The Expanding Lotus ( ) is the loving side of God, and the Lotustica ( ) is the destructive or punishing side, which is invisible and “is not.” <22> Punishment and destruction come to man only when man goes against His Laws. <23> Indeed it does not exist and it is not God who punishes or destroys. It happens because man goes against His Laws and so brings destruction to himself. <24> Destruction also happens when the old has to be replaced by the new. <25> Therefore, the sign Haree Om Shrii Hung in general means that with spiritual powers ( ), God controls the operative powers of the three gunas ( ), and He is the nucleus of the universe. <26> The Expanding Lotus shows that He is all-pervasive and loving. <27> The Lotustica demonstrates His Power (the Universal Laws) of guiding and advancing the universe. <28> The equivalent to the HOSH sign is the four-armed Krishna in the Hindu religion and the square mandala in tantric Buddhism. <29> The I-Ching sign ( ) in the middle is a representation of the Krishna and in Buddhist terms is the center of the mandala (Vajrasattva). <30> The four-armed Lotustica ( ) shows the four arms of the Krishna and the four sides (north, south, west, and east) in the mandala. <31> The I-Ching in the middle and the fourarmed Lotustica together can be viewed as five jinas in the core of the Buddhist mandala. <32> Hinduism and Buddhism both strive to reach a state of consciousness beyond the manifested mind. Although this state is called by different names such as samadhi, nirvana, union with God, etc., but they are all referring to the same thing, which we call Pure Consciousness (God in transcendental form). <33> This state of consciousness is the goal
