It's probably only a "law of nature" from which all other laws spring.
Explained to simple people with the concept of "God" which of course
became perverted into all kinds of nonsense. It's like the overtone
series from a fundamental tone on a bass string. Or just think of it as
"fractals" which means we're all just "fractals". :-D

Barry,
Some times we wonder if you think before you type your ideas on the
computer. Isn't there a law of nature that governs the structure of
the atom and the subparticles that are contained within which cannot
be seen by human eyes?
If you split the atom, as in violating the law of nature, you get a
big explosion like the atomic bomb that was dropped in Hiroshima and
Nagasaki.

I don't see them that way. I see them the same way I see the laws of
men. That is, as a conceptual framework, within which to exercise
one's free will.
That's the way physical, lawbreakin' outlaws view the laws of men.
They know they're there, and that there may be consequences for
violating them, but they're willing to bet on that "may be." They
exercise their free will, roll the dice, and see what happens.
As we can all tell just by looking at the headlines and around us in
daily life, the Bad Things that will supposed;y occur if people break
the laws of men don't always happen. At least within the outlaw's
lifetime, which is the only one we know fersure exists. So some of the
outlaws who broke the law skate away Scot-free. They rolled the dice
and won, at least from a being-punished-for-violating-the-laws-of-men
point of view.
Looking back on my life, I've heard a LOT about the supposed
higher-level Laws Of Nature, and how Bad Things Will Happen To You If
You Violate Them. Such beliefs are legion in the TMO, and in many
other spiritual trips. It is not hyperbole to suggest that *many*
people on this planet 1) are convinced that these Laws Of Nature
exist, and 2) are convinced that they 'know' what these Laws Of Nature
are.
Me, I'm convinced of neither. As to whether a fixed and universal set
of Laws Of Nature exist, I am an agnostic. As to whether *anyone* on
this planet 'knows' what the Laws Of Nature actually *are* if they do
exist, I am an atheist.
And so I've always lived my life as an outlaw. I roll the dice.
Sure, I pay heed to a few of the things that those who claim to 'know'
would call Laws Of Nature, as applied to human behavior. I try not to
kill people and shit like that. But many of the other things they
claim are inviolable Laws Of Nature I roll the dice on. I trust my own
intuition, and occasionally violate them.
If the 'knowers' tell me, for example, that certain behaviors
definitely violate the Laws Of Nature and would be Bad -- behaviors
such as being gay, not meditating, thinking or speaking ill of a guru,
or entering a building from the wrong direction -- I'm more likely to
treat them as the crazy people they are, rather than pay heed to their
warnings. I ignore them completely and make my own decisions. In doing
this, I am willing to bet on my intuition and my life experience and
roll the dice.
Is that Bad?
:-)
