The IDYLL OF THE BLUE LOTUS ? or is it "WHITE LOTUS ?" Is this
the book by Mabel Collins?
In any case. The Law that each human makes for himself is KARMA.
It is INDIVIDUAL. But it has to fit into the overlapping waves
of the multiple Karma generators all around us. No one lives in
a separate Universe all his own, even though the choices he/she
makes are going to come back in time as their Karma.
Once we grasp the idea that we are all, (atoms, to mankind, to
Buddhas) IMMORTALS it makes sense to grasp that BROTHERHOOD
involves everyone in our individual choices. That cannot be
avoided.
The best course in such a considered case is to be generous,
faithful to others, as to ourself, and treat all with compassion.
Taken as a mass, or a Host, mankind is made up of different
elements and the influence of desire and mind are to be seen
playing everywhere.
Best wishes
Dallas

Hi Guys,
I read something in it else that seems a bit different - I
thought we
each we're our own law givers - not an external authority.
'Each man is his own absolute law-giver, the dispenser of glory
or gloom
to himself; the decreer of his life, his rewards, his
punishment' - The
Idyll of the White Lotus.
Am I getting it all arse-about?
Cheers
Nos

##I agree, but I still wonder why do "the law", "the enforcers"

##REALLY going on "behind the stage"?
