TEN COMMANDMENTS of the DIVER

1. Thou shalt not dive in harsh conditions, where visibility is not conducive to an enjoyable experience; where surge action will exceed your energy level; where entry and exit are beyond your capabilities.
    
2. Thou shalt not dive when not perfectly fit, if you are not feeling 100% ready; if you are under the influence; or after an uneasy 'night before'.
    
3. Thou shalt not dive deeper than necessary; farther than essential; longer than expedient.
    
4. Thou shalt not dive without certification, for that is folly.
    
5. Thou shalt not dive to rape the reef, for the reef is what you dive to see and enjoy. (Without the reef and its inhabitants, we shalt not dive).
    
6. Thou shalt dive to observe, to view, to visit.
    
7. Thou shalt dive with a buddy, for it is safer, and wiser.
    
8. Thou shalt dive with necessary equipment, for it may save your life.
    
9. Thou shalt dive peacefully, for then you will experience peace; peace of mind; of body; of spirit.
    
10. Thou shalt dive conservatively; taking only pictures.....
    ........leaving only bubbles.
