“This Law -- whether Conscious or Unconscious --predestines nothing and no one. It exists from and in Eternity, truly, for it is ETERNITY itself; and as such, since no act can be co-equal with eternity, it cannot be said to act, for it is ACTION itself...Karma creates nothing, nor does it design. It is man who plans and creates causes, and Karmic law adjusts the effects; which adjustment is not an act, but universal harmony, tending ever to resume its original position.” MenDoeSaidActionLawCausesPlansEffectsDesignPositionEqualConsciousUniversalEternityHarmonyOriginalsKarmaUnconsciousAdjustmentResumes Author:H.
