As a rule, we can
define law as being a guideline of conduct that if not executed
bears a penalty to the offender. The penalty should be proportional,
within reason, to the damage caused by the offense, and the penalty
should be severe to the degree that the offender understands that it
is much wiser to obey the law than not fulfill it.
At first glimpse this definition can be considered
valid for the two types of law to which a person is submitted: the
earthly law, instituted by human will, and the laws of Creation, or
Universal law, instituted by The Creator's Will. However, the apparent
similarities between both end here.
Human law governs over the life of a person in
society while the subject is alive on Earth. The Universal law
conditions the very existence of man, be he here on Earth, or in any
other sphere of Creation.
Human laws are intrinsically imperfect, therefore
changeable both in time and space. A month-old promulgated law may no
longer be in force today, and the legislation of one country does not
necessarily apply to another. But on the other hand the laws of
Creation are absolutely perfect, and that’s why they can never be
subject to any alteration whatsoever. They can never be amended,
reduced or revoked. Much less perfected. They exist since the
beginning of time and they will stay eternally the same, unalterable,
intangible, and incorruptible.
It is absolutely impossible for any person to be
fully aware of all the human laws that he or she is submitted to
during their short passage of time here on Earth, because of their
number and complexity. To the contrary, the laws that govern Creation
are few and simple. They are simplicity itself. They can be perfectly
understood by anyone, independent of their level of education. And it
could be no different, as all the creatures are submitted to them, and
thus also the human spirit too, regardless if while on Earth he is
illiterate or an academic.
By nature human laws are flawed because they are
exclusively products of the limited intellect. They are full of
loopholes that prevent them from being carried out, leaving the
offender unpunished. They are subject to political injunctions;
doubtful interpretations and they contribute to the increased number
of specialized consultants that teach people how to legally defraud
them. But with Universal law, this has never existed, nor will there
ever be a case where a creature has broken a law without having been
immediately subject to the consequences of its noncompliance.
Because they are so few of them, extremely simple,
absolutely logical and so incisive for the human’s existence, there is
no excuse for their noncompliance under the allegation of ignorance.
The non-execution of these laws through ignorance makes the
circumstance even more serious, as it demonstrates that the
offender–we could also say here the sinner–showed no interest in them
and neither made the slightest effort to assimilate them nor fulfill
them. The “lack of effort” is equal to “lack of movement” that already
constitutes a conscious disobedience to the law of movement.
To fulfill the laws of Creation is the same as
adjusting to The Will of The Creator, Who instituted them. And this
Will establishes that in one’s development, on Earth or in any other
part of Creation, one should only ever find happiness, peace and joy.
To not fulfill these laws means to act against The Creator's Will,
this in turn brings to man only what is a result of his own
wrongdoing: pain, suffering, anguish and all types of misfortunes.
The more spiritually elevated the human is, the
wiser he becomes, and the more he submits himself to these Universal
laws unconditionally, as this way he is guaranteed happiness at the
outset. This is the greatest wisdom that a human being can long for.
It is the supreme art of living.
