Janthopoyism: Scripture: Are Morals Definable and Does Karma Exist?

Are Morals Definable and Does Karma Exist?

Book 2: The Internal Universe | Chapter 2.6 | 30 September 2020

If everyone's moral compass faced an identical direction, conflict would not occur, and our individual trajectories would be too similar to benefit the Universal Energy.

Every person's moral code is questionable from time to time. Perhaps you've sought revenge on someone who has done you wrong, or you've consumed the flesh of an animal that suffered greatly, or you've participated in an unconventional sexual act, or you've fired someone in the name of business, or you've enjoyed products from companies that employ slave labour, or you've created art that encourages depraved concepts. People hold firm yet morally opposing views on such ideas, and yet most of us can (at times, begrudgingly) accept that these stances are an individual's freedom to make.

The line between right and wrong is often blurry, and you are not the authority to determine it. Sometimes unfavourable events breed fruitful results anyway, and vice versa. That is the Universal's manner of balance. Taoism has always explained this well with its farmer parable. The best you can do is note what buzzes correct for your ethics and follow the path with the most meaningful sense of wellbeing. Do not worry about the actions of others. Find peace that you've made your decisions from the appropriate place irrespective of the outcome.

When evaluating your personal principles, Janthopoyism recommends that you place words on paper as this helps to unclog thought passages while accessing deeper realms of your consciousness. Think about who you want to be, what you'd like people to say about you, how you desire others to remember you after passing. What are your core values? Which features of your character are you proud of and wish to encourage? Which standards are you not willing to violate? What mistakes have you made that were so incongruent with your emotional response you pray never to repeat them?

How about spending some time contemplating the most profound moral dilemmas in human society, for example, abortion laws, the unsustainable meat industry, assisted suicide, adultery, giving money to the homeless, global vaccinations, and the death penalty? Simply by establishing these borders, you will train your brain to live within them. And when you overstep the mark (which you will) and feel that undeniable ick, hold yourself accountable and evaluate the failure to build an even stronger framework. But remember that your principles are your principles. It is your duty alone to follow them; they're not the obligation of anyone else.

The controversy comes with those select few who feel it is acceptable to harm other people. The philosophy of Janthopoyism may be difficult to stomach initially, but it remains the same on all topics. Everything is a manifestation of divinity, including those who commit crimes that sicken most of us. Like you, every human is an extension of the Universal Energy, birthed to carry out specific tasks, operating on a system of balance. It creates conflict, then rectifies itself to learn and evolve. There are some truly magnificent people out there who help others in hugely positive ways, and we should focus upon them. But for their contribution to be constructive, this positivity has to be counterbalanced by exact equals of negativity. The aggravation of conflict is imperative to the evolutionary program.

What's more, you'll usually find that these tortured people grew out from immense conflict thrust upon them in the first place; conflict you will never understand and therefore are not in a position to judge. It's not up to you to label anyone, especially yourself, as a good person or a bad person. Once again, that is an abstract concept, and who are you comparing yourself to? How many other minds have you had? How do you know what someone else deems the correct way of living? It's not your place to make that call. The best you can do is compare yourself to your former self. Are you bettering your person in those aspects you consider crucial? Then great. Concentrate on that and forget everyone else's path; it is not your bother.

Thankfully when it comes to those who are a threat to society, the evolution of communities disfavours them, and Janthopoyism wholeheartedly supports the law on these matters. The removal of such characters from the proximity of others is beneficial to the evolution of the larger population. Still, looking down at these misguided individuals as somehow inferior is incorrect and will never help. They are still humans with spirits that are still holy. They were only behaving by what their thoughts deemed correct. Please offer compassion to cross-wired brains that were moulded from outside interferences, whipped into ugly shape by ugly circumstances, never by own design. We must do everything in our power to rehabilitate them into harmony with their surroundings. No other sentencing is fair. Only love and the proper attention can fix broken lives. And, what's more, society can avoid the next mess by offering open arms in the first place.

As admirable as the above perceptions are, we must echo that none of this is your concern unless directly disrupting your path. If you are not currently facing a murderer, then do not worry about murderers. Instead, meditate on your morals and figure out where you slot into this loose world. And once you have matured your self-governing policies, all you need to do is remain 100% in tune with them when you perform any step. Read your list of principles regularly to solidify your beliefs further, and note when you do something that conjures a feeling of yuck. Recognise it as an emotional warning from the Internal Universe. You have stumbled from the path that the Universal Energy has set out for you, and you must reevaluate your movements based on this upset.

When you are confident that you are functioning true to thine own self with your morals solidly established, then the consequences of your choices are irrelevant. You need never look back in regret if you know you stuck to your principles and made the best decision you could with the information you had, now ready to execute an ever better decision next time. You can never make a mistake if your heart is pure in the process.

Moving on, and related to morals is the idea of karma. Does it exist? The answer might surprise you. It does! However, it doesn't work how most people interpret it. Karma is merely the product of moving closer or further away from your central morals, and in doing so, manifesting joy or trouble into your life. Shine, and the world will shine back! Conversely, the longer you spend away from your True Path, the worse your immediate Universe will spiral, causing all sorts of chaos.

If you do something and feel terrible about it, you perceive reality from an outlook of guilt, and the quantum fields will respond accordingly. Indeed, the very thought that you deserve cosmic punishment is the same as waving a giant flag demanding the Universe delivers retribution. In theory, you could live a life of great wickedness, but if your moral vibrations feel no remorse for it, then the Universe will not get in your way. Look at those in power and know what I say is true.

We recall the horrific thought where countless lives are called upon to assist the production of conflict. It is part of the eternal balance, and if you do not like it, that's perfect! You now know this is not your path. Instead, you can happily follow your trail of righteousness (blissfully ignoring that most people think they are following the path of righteousness too).

On the flip side, if you are one of those who feel no moral accountability towards antisocial action and are happy to be remembered as a negative influence in people's lives, then so be it. As discussed, morals are subjective, hence why Janthopoysim does not directly assess general human behaviour. We recognise that unsavoury incidents are still the Universe attacking itself, like when you argue with a friend in a dream. Human minds have developed to take uncivilised activities personally, and it causes much of the species great pain to endure or witness them. Yet, it is of very little consequence to the Universal Energy. Hence, both the Universe and Janthopoyism harbour no judgment towards any path you take, and we'd voluntarily shake the hand of anyone. But we shall do so with a frown, and we will not invite you to stay. For if you recognise your conduct is negatively affecting the existence of another and you feel no determination for improvement, then you cannot reasonably refer to yourself as a Janthopoyist.

To conclude, here's a tangent. One moral behaviour that doesn't necessarily rattle the evolutionary cage yet Janthopoyism vigorously opposes, is the act of lying. Such a misdeed is a minor offence for some, but Janthopoyism's adamant dislike is rooted in evolutionary logic. Mistruths force you to retain information beyond memory, essentially saving the story twice. Therefore, they clog up the mind and throttle the communication between the Universal Energy and your Internal Energy. And even beyond this, why are you lying anyway? Passing false information is strong evidence that you are not living the life of your True Path. If you were, you would not want to hide or distort the content. You'd want to shout about your behaviour to the world! So why is that not the case? What are you doing instead? Or what are you not doing? If you're unwilling to be honest about your life, that is a concern requiring immediate and dramatic change before you can progress any further.
