Study Notes
Nature's Universal Balancing Law
- Nature maintains a perfect balance across time, space, energy, matter, and intelligence, shaping these into diverse forms.
- Every individual experiences both joy and hardship as part of this universal balance.
- A compensating mechanism exists to aid in balancing bitter and sweet experiences based on individual needs and desires.
- Every adversity, defeat, failure, or disappointment contains the seed of equivalent benefit.
- Individuals can find and cultivate this benefit in all experiences, regardless of their cause.
Infinite Justice and Human Relationships
-
The universal laws guarantee justice, eliminating the possibility of injustice within the natural order.
-
Injustice arises from human relationships, not natural laws.
-
Man, through correct understanding and adaptation to natural laws, can punish himself for wrongdoing and reward himself justly for virtue.
-
Circumstances affecting people fall into two categories:
-
Those outside individual control (e.g., death of loved ones, birth defects, social circumstances).
-
Those under individual control (e.g., emotions, health, relationships).
Controlling Mental Attitudes
- Mental attitude control is essential to peace of mind, especially concerning events beyond personal control.
- By focusing on the mental attitude, individuals can ignore external circumstances.
- This involves adjusting oneself to circumstances both controllable and uncontrollable.
Universal Balance in Nature
- The Law of Balance extends to all aspects of nature, including trees, inanimate objects, atoms, celestial bodies.
- Trees exhibit a perfect balancing system through their branches and roots.
- Atoms are balanced through the opposing forces of electrons and protons.
- The universe's stability comes from balanced gravitational forces between its parts.
Benefitting From the Universal Balancing Law
- Taking advantage of this law requires actively relating to controllable circumstances and passively adjusting to uncontrollable ones.
- Individuals are encouraged to understand and use this knowledge for their success.
- Humans alone can deviate from natural laws if they choose, but may also face consequences for doing so.
