Order and Authority

Imagining yourself to be the exception to every rule is much easier than learning to follow the rules.

Your desire to escape all pain allows you to deceive yourself about your true condition.

Without pain, your condition will never be exposed. Without pain, you will continue to delude yourself into thinking you are orderly.

Your problems likewise require a cooperative remedy. You alone are not adequate enough to address the problem.

Do not be threatened by the fact that disorder exists. Exposing disorder is the first step toward becoming an orderly person.

When your disorder is dealt with, you can then effectively address the disorderly state of others.

While the consistent, orderly application of form attracts others, achieving consistency requires training. It does not happen overnight. There are no shortcuts. Time and effort must be sacrificed to achieve consistent order.
