Whatever has happened is justice
is all encompassing. Justice through intellect is limited. I am
telling you a fundamental thing about nature; you should separate
yourself from your intellect because it is the intellect that entangles
you. Once you understand this law of nature, you should not
listen to what your intellect tells you. Mistakes are to be found
in the law courts, but nature’s justice is exact. Free yourself
from these shackles of intellect.
UNFAIR DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH IS JUSTICE
Upon the death of their father, four sons have a dispute
over the inheritance of some land. The property at first settles
in the hands of the eldest son, who refuses to share it with his
brothers. The land was to be divided equally among the four of
them, with each receiving fifty acres. Instead, one receives
twenty-five acres, one gets fifty acres, one gets forty acres and
one receives only five.
How is one to understand this? The worldly justice will
proclaim the eldest brother a shameless rogue and a cheat. But
nature’s justice says that what has happened is correct. Each of
them received exactly the amount they were destined to. The
difference between what they actually received and what they
were meant to receive according to their father’s will, paid off
their pending accounts from their past life.
If you do not want to cause a dispute, you must act
according to the way of nature; otherwise you will find that the
whole world is one big conflict. Do not look for justice. Justice
is what happens. Justice is only there so that you can see whether
any deep inner change has occurred within you. If I encounter
justice in the world, then one thing is decided, that I am just.
Justice is my thermometer. Man becomes perfect and absolute
when he becomes one with justice, and he sees everything as
just. Until then, he is either above or below norm []K
