 This cosmology has important ethical applications. The respect of natural, social, and moral norms, as discovered through the millennia by prophets and philosophers, is necessary for the proper maturation of the Being. In the mildest interpretation of the cosmic-egg cosmology, those individuals who follow correctly rite and traditions will be incorporated into the Being itself to partake in Its existence. Those who do not, will be cast away as allantois (afterbirth); it's not clear what this fate entails exactly, but it can be assumed to be highly undesirable.
-Some currents believe that sufficient disorder in the material world -- widespread vice and corruption, tyranny or rebellion, natural disasters -- will abort the Being, preventing Its hatching. The lineage of the [[Takrakaya#Divine Empress|Divine Empresses]] as Tsang-ha has the practical and ceremonial responsibility, among other things, to prevent this fate.

 A yet darker interpretation of this model, found among discontented elements of Chaatai and Takrakaya society, holds that the Being //is already stillborn//, and the world is Its decaying corpse. This entails the necessity, depending on the subject, of either withdrawing from the material world and the greater society, or of deliberately destroying it as a final purification.
