Well, they do say that there is nothing like a hanging to concentrate the mind.
I personally think that The Knowledge applies to whoever wishes to take it on board. All these warnings are directed towards paying attention to every thought, it being our creation process. God Consciousness is the cleanest possible experience. The conscious elimination of anything less than absolutely clean at the point at which thought is created is a necessary part of awakening this Consciousness. To enter this discipline because one wants to is accurate, to enter it out of fear is something less. Far better a love of purity than a fear of impurity. In BK speak, soul consciousness is the path from Shudra to God Consciousness. To realise God Consciousness is the aim of life, the experience is so good that anything less is punishment. Baba created the Dharamraj out of love, if love of purity doesn't work then a big stick might.
I look forward to seeing other responses to Bansy's very constructive question.
