This means that everybody wins. Although based on self-interest, everyone's actions contribute to the highest good of all concerned. We could introduce ever more new and tighter legislation - adopt stringent rules and regulations. We have seen how this plan works. And about its effectiveness there can be no illusions.
Laws created by man are manipulative and subject to manipulation.
Rules can be bent and regulations have loopholes. Furthermore, rules and regulations imply that we are ignorant of universal or natural law. By their very existence they infer that we do not inherently know, feel or sense what is right, but rather, because of our ignorance, must submit to some outside authority. Poised between ourselves and the world, laws, rules and regulations may even widen the gulf of separation between ourselves and nature. Founded on interconnectedness, it unfolds through understanding, and through assimilating and growing into universal law.
