Our basic nature is one of wisdom, compassion, inner freedom, confidence and courage.  In traditional language we have a spark of the divine or Buddha nature.  But there are spiritual dead ends we need to look out for.  If we spend all our precious energy on these, it leads to suffering and a wasted life.

We can identify these as the 5 delusory 'p's.  Possessions, Power, Prestige, Profit and Pleasure.  These are all good things in their place but a bad bet to bet your life on.
