In any society there will always be beings that will "punish", "chastise" or "take revenge" as long as it is necessary, regardless of how many beings exist that no longer can take part in any form of "punishment" or "revenge"
1253. And here we have thus a new proof of the fact that, even if there are beings that cannot take part in "punishing" and "taking revenge", there will always be enough beings that have the heart and mentality to attend to all the robust measures, the karmic effects or causes that must and shall inevitably occur within a society of beings that still do not love their neighbour as themselves but in their thoughts, nature and appearance more or less uphold or swear by the law of "punishment" or "revenge". How could primitive, hateful and unloving beings otherwise receive their returning karma and come to "reap what they have sown"? If such beings were not surrounded by beings of their own type, but were surrounded by nothing but "angels" and "forgiving" beings, they would of course never ever come to experience the sufferings of "revenge" and "punishment", nor would they be able to feel happy with the "forgiving" beings, since they would be able to regard them only as primitive, naive and cowardly, if they did not consider them downright "abnormal". And we have here once again an insight into how everything, at any given moment, is precisely as perfect as it can be. But this does not exclude the fact that, in conformity with the same law of perfection, it can and will be more perfect at a later moment, and will thus also express what can only be the most perfect at the moment in question.
