The personal /outer life (Simplicity, 4)

What are we living in a world full of complexity, one sighs and therefore one says: "It is all difficult, we are not capable, we do not know where to start, we just wait and we'll see what happens."
Meanwhile you’ll probably see what will happen, because God, the spiritual world, mother earth, nature, and other big entities will do their thing anyway. You’ll notice it for yourselves.
But at what is the individual then capable of, what is up to him?
Here's the simple answer.
This is up to man by the motto of the Christ:

"Treat others the way you want to be treated" *

And the motto is said to the ego, the ego alone.
If one follows this guideline, it is good. But ... .. on all fronts, not just some. Now mankind is succumbing to the pollution of its own nest, his birthplace, I say: do not do to mother nature, what you would not want to experience for yourself. But also for example concerning the body, because alcohol and other immoderates are affecting the body. Horrific destruction of precious organs, even one's own body is hurt what the ego would not like to endure for itself.

Yet the ego does this because one of the characteristics of the ego is short-term acting, what's up to me, and the rest I’ll notice.
Fortunately  God's laws will look after permanent correction and ensure the long-term, and that is what the soul and the spiritual body of man do know, but the ego does not, namely that the consequences of all acting will return to man. Willingly or unwillingly.

My blessings to you all
