It is the case as well that The String of Jewels teaches that this type of wisdom
is both the path that enables us to reach liberation and the path which
allows us to reach omniscience.

And this is true because The String of Jewels itself says,
As long as you grasp to the parts of yourself,
Then you will grasp to yourself as well.
And as long as you grasp to yourself,
You’ll continue to collect then karma as well,
And because of it too take birth.

These three ways have no beginning;
They have no end, nor even a middle.$
And so this circle of fire,
The cycle of pain in which we live,
Continues to spin, like a pinwheel,
Perpetuated by causes and factors
That support each one the other.
[$These three ways: The “three ways” here are explained by Master
Jayananda in The Explication of “Entering into the Middle Way,” Section One
