I conclude that if you perform horrific experiments on animals then our intelligent universe reduces the rate at which you can continue to 10bps.

This is why enlightenment cures you of your curiosity.




Only 10 beatings per second? This is a just universe, Sir!

On a serious note, enlightenment only cures us of our selfish curiosity, i.e. any action which causes harm to others. The Way requires us to harmonize with universal compassion, so there is take and give (especially with regard to our required sustenance), but we definitely lose our propensity to experiment with our power at the expense of others. No, we are to increase our curiosity in how we can better help others, help being the cornerstone of compassion.
