"How is that done?" "By understanding that no one is to blame," said the Master. "NO ONE.”

“Ethics are complete, profound and alive only when addressed to all living beings. Only then are we in spiritual connection with the world. Any philosophy not representing this, not based on the indefinite totality of life, is bound to disappear.”
