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.
