Dr. Moore Memorial Service Thoughts of Franz Hartmann Thoughts of Dr. Franz Hartmann, 1889.
All external conditions are the outcome of internal conditions.
This is as true in regard to a people as it is true in regard to a man, a society, an animal, a plant, or a rock. The Law of Karma is an universal law which acts within communities, yea, even so within solar systems, as it acts in regard to individuals. A vice forcibly repressed, unless displaced by a virtue, will accumulate strength until the pent-up force is followed by an explosion. Man is whatever he makes himself by his thoughts. A people on the whole may be looked upon as a compound individual, made up of a great many personalities, and yet being one entity to which the same law applies.
