PROTECTIVE LAW
OF NON-RESISTANCE
Howard A. Colby

The Law of Nonresistance is based
upon the laws of Science of Mind, the
fundamental axioms of which are that
whatsoever is resisted, whatsoever is
feared, will sooner or later come upon
the individual or nation. These axi-
ons are as true as the axioms of geo
metry.
If an Individual carries apistol in
his pocket with the idea that it is his
protection, he will sooner or later get
shot. This is also true of nation. 1t
is only a question of time when the
mental law will bring disaster upon
the individual and nation that does not
understand the Universal Law Of Love
Prepare a little, and we will "get it
good" prepare big, and eventually
there will be the greatest bloodshed
that has ever been known.
It is remarkable, in the light of past
history and this present greatest Of
wars, that there should be a human
mind which does not see the working
Of this law.
The law of nonresistance isthemost
positive and protective law in the
world It is the only law which will
bring peace among men. It requires
much more intelligence, more wisdom
and nerve than the negative idea of
resistance and physical force. "Love
your enemies" "BIess those that curse
you," "Resist not evil" are statements
IF the highest intelligence. Thetruth
= expressed in them is of the greatest
import for the human mind to grasp
They contain the secret of the ages.
1t is the only way that permanent
peace and goodwill will ever be estab-
jished among men and nations
It is an individual proposition first.
This is the most vital point Each in
dividual must play the game, until we
are all educated in the workings of
the higher laws.
The idea of resistance is based on
fear, the greatest enemy of man. It
is the product of ignorance. 1t is the
lack Of knowledge and understanding
shat Love is the greatest force and
power in the world
But" says the sincere seeker after
Truth, ''look at dear little Belgium.
She was not prepared; see what hap
pened to her"
Yes, but she fought, my deal fellow,
and that is the cause of her terrible
suffering today.
But what would have happened if
she had not Fought"
The Germans would have put the
people where they would have been
safe from harm, and fortified the plac-
es they wanted.
''How do you know this?"
By intuition, the keenest knowledge
in the world
"WelI, how about China?"
China did not know anything about
the law of non-resistance; there was
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1917-04-05

not even enough life in her to play
the game of physical resistance. The
law Of nonresistance requires great
courage and activity-the activity of
doing good.
what would you do personally if
you were obliged to pass through a
town where everybody had six-shoot-
er, and was shooting everybody else ?"
In the old thought, thethought of
preparedness, l would buy leather
protector, practice with hairtripper
pistol, put one in both hip pockets, and
'go to it." But today, with a keen
perception Of the greater wisdom of
the protective law of nonresistance, l
would pin a sign on my chest and on
my back, Il amt got no gun"

CLING TO ANCIENT CUSTOMS
In Rural England Forms of Easter
Celebration INDUCED in for Gen.
turtles Are Still Kept Up.

The mention of hot cross buns i'm
mediateIy suggests England, where
they are used more universally than
perhaps any other country And while
England is not q Catholic country,
So-calIed, rural customs of all kinds,
religious and otherwise, have an I'M
usually firm hold. One of the very
strangest yesterday customs is called
the harepie festival, enacted in Leices-
tershire. at the village of HalIaton.
Every Easter morning a brass band
heads a procession which takes in most
everybody in the town.
They parade through the streets and
after a short service at the Episcopal
church the rector, aided by two or
three officials of the village, cuts up a
large rabbit pie, which has been baked
for the occasion. These pieces of pie
are fought for by boys and young men,
down a hillside called Hare Bank, and
it is considered something TO be proud
of to deserve the largest cut of the
pastry.
This is followed by a feast in the
principal tavern or church, and ale in
abundance is consumed, an affair
which precedes a football match ia
nous over the whole of the county,
and looked forward to by thousands
of spectators every year.

Unknown to the outside world he
