I believe you wrongly interpret me.

I quote as well as possible the statements regarding the nature
of KARMA as derived directly from THE KEY TO THEOSOPHY.  And I
would invite everyone to go there and check them out directly.

I am not trying to shade HPB's definitions but only to point out
how universal and impartial they are.  If the motives that
actuate our choices are less than universal and impersonal acts
for the good of others, to that extent we are either in error, in
ignorance or we are deliberately committing a crime against our
Voice of Conscience and against humanity and the Universe.  We
are the actors, and the responsibility is solely ours.

We are all somewhere on the food chain, that's for certain. But
is it
wrong to eat what was provided for us to eat by the All?  I think
it is
wrong to question His ways.

I was trying to get around the whole right/wrong approach
here. What is important is motive.  Dallas tries to single
out certain particular individuals as "victims" and others
as "criminals" and I am saying that we are all victims and
criminals at times and in degrees.
