Our Nation
With regard
to national environment, the knower of karma must carefully study the national
conditions into which he is born, in order to see whether he is born therein
chiefly to develop qualities in which he is deficient,
or chiefly to help his nation by qualities well developed in himself. In times
of transition, many egos may be born into a nation, with qualities of the type
of
required in the new conditions into which that nation is
passing.
Thus, in
America, which will presently develop the beginnings of a Commonwealth in which
cooperation shall replace competition, there have been born a number of egos of
vast organising ability, of highly developed will
power, and keen commercial intelligence; they have created Trusts, organisations of industry built with consummate ability,
manifesting the economical advantages of doing away with competition, of
controlling production and supply, of meeting, but not
over-meeting, demand. They have thus opened the way to
cooperative production and distribution, and prepared for a happier future.
Soon will be born the egos who will see in the
securing of the comfort of the nation a greater stimulus
than personal
gain, and they will complete the transition process; the one set have gathered
into a head the forces of individualism; the other set will bend these forces
to the common good.
Thus is
environment governed by karma, and by a knowledge of
law the desired environment may be created. If it grips us when once called
into being, it is none the less ours to decide what that being shall be. Our
power over that future environment is now in our hands, for its creator is the
activities of the present.
