Principle 12

Bhoga-Mokṣa

In plain words

Engagement and liberation must increase together.

Inference throughout. Use Respond if the mapping is wrong.

[inference]My reasoning from the sources — mine, not the tradition's.

Tantric source-field

Bhoga (experience) and mokṣa (liberation) as dual success criteria in Tantric ethics.

Modern failure mode

Addiction disguised as engagement, or detachment disguised as freedom.

Technical-system implication

Bhoga-Mokṣa Score: measure both usage and exit-agency.

Human-development implication

Success = more freedom, not more dependence.

Example pattern

HOPE success metric: restored agency, not session length.
