there are two laws only: the universal, the existential law, the tao - and so many occasional laws of all the different cultures, nations, states whose only commonness is their artificiality - the artificial law.
it is a matter of fact that the adjustment, attunement with the universal law automatically, unpreventable leads beyond all those artificial laws with the crucial difference that the universal law is not based on violence while all the artificial laws are.
the installment of any moral or ethical code - generally presenting itself as containers of great values - as well as the manifold systems of justice, exist as always two-faced strategy's:
this happens for the reason that a particular power-structure always gets privileged, all this breathing violence by its very constitution, its excluding and favoring tendency's.
becoming aware about this, at some point one is overwhelmed by the impression that human history is nothing but an uninterrupted procession of wars, of continuous struggle around privilege, even more up to this day namely due to the influence held by vested interests of different origin by supporting the status quo, the establishment - it appears, that humanity is forcibly hindered to live life according to the existential law.
to do so is left, so to say temporarily tolerated, only to few and far between individuals, while this people must accept persecution to happen at any moment.
in other words, the natural, the simple human being following its nature by surrendering to the existential law, is rejected by all power-structures whatsoever with its inevitable result of getting branded as outlaw, inescapably seen as persona non grata, as unwanted, dangerous.
one feels to say, that due to the very real possibility of global destruction, based on abovementioned continuous power struggle, the struggle against nature, against life as such, meditation now has become the only antidote remaining, freely available to everyone, to avoid this greatest of all calamities for finally meditation and the universal law may be experienced as one and the same, eventually there is no meditation anymore, but only the law remains.
