Disrespect for the Law – Pride Sees Justice as an Enemy - (987)

Introduction

If we search deeply within our psyche we might be able to find strange attitudes towards the Law. Not just the Divine Law but the physical law as well.


Divine and Physical Law

The perfect and just law is of course the divine law and in the most ideal of cases the physical law is an expression of the Divine Law. However, we know these days that at times the physical law can be altered and manipulated to serve very powerful interests. But for the most part we can regard it as a representation of the Divine Law because if one is in trouble with the physical law you can be sure that one is in trouble with the Divine Law. There of course are and will be exceptions to this depending upon the subjectivity of the physical law. For example one may commit adultery and the physical law won’t do anything in a western country but before the Divine Law one will be in some sort of trouble.

Attitudes

We can discover many attitudes ranging from straight out hating the Law both physical and Divine to just plain ignorance.

Hatred to Ignorance

Even if hate or are ignorant we are still under the law and will face the consequences of our actions according to the law.

More Common - Disregard

The more common attitudes are ones that are to do with a disrespect or disregard. We somehow think that the laws of the Law do not apply to us or that we will be able to escape them, because it is us, but others will have to pay for breaking the law. We may even think that it is too boring to always follow the law or that it is too difficult. The end result of all of these attitudes is that we do not take responsibility for our actions before the law. Everything changes in us when we decide to take responsibility before eh law for our past, current and future actions.


Pride Behind Many Wrong Attitudes

The ego behind these attitudes is Pride. Pride actually hates justice because it never wants to be submitted and to submit to justice means that we were wrong and we must accept the consequences.
One sees that the pride of all these dictators and very powerful people aims to be above the law of their country and they always escape justice. Just look at the very powerful nations such as Russia, it was found that Russia shot down that Malaysian airlines commercial carrier and nothing has happened and most likely nothing will happen either, Russia will escape justice and the consequences for killing all those people that have nothing to do with Russia.


The Law is there to Help and Protect

The Law is in place really to help us and to protect from us harm. If we are to follow all the laws in nature, the cosmos and in life no harm would ever really come to us. It is precisely because we break all these laws, principles that we get into trouble and feel pain and suffer.


The Law doesn’t Punish Us We Punish Ourselves!

We may hate the Law and those that enforce it but they are only instruments of it and they are only really fulfilling the role of teaching us. We may think that they are punishing us but they are not really because we are the ones punishing ourselves because we needed to learn in the first place and we made the mistake.

End (987).
