only. He is not at fault; he is merely an instrument (nimit) in it.
Therefore, fault is of the sufferer.
A couple fights and later they go to bed not talking to
each other. The wife will sleep peacefully, whereas the husband
will be restless, tossing and turning in the bed. From this we
should understand that he is at fault. The wife is not suffering.
If the wife is tossing and turning and the husband is snoring, the
wife is at fault. Whoever is at fault will suffer. This is a very
profound science. The world always blames the instrument
(nimit).
What Is God’s Law?
God’s law says that at any given time, at any given place,
the person who suffers is at fault. A pickpocket is happy when
he steals a person’s wallet. He will enjoy himself with the money
he stole, whereas his victim would be suffering. Therefore, the
sufferer is at fault. He must have stolen in his past life and so
today he is caught and is paying for his mistakes. In nature’s
law, today he is considered the thief, but the other thief will be
called a thief the day he is caught.
People blame others when they are suffering. By doing
so, their faults double and their problems in life keep increasing.
If you were to understand this phrase, your problems will
decrease.
Man’s law finds fault in what the eye sees, whereas the
law of nature finds the sufferer at fault.
If you do not inflict even the slightest suffering on others
and if you accept the suffering others impose upon you, then
your past accounts will be settled and you will attain
liberation.
