There is Nobody to Blame for Anything

by peace2all

Let me start by stating a bold claim that you've probably never
heard before. Upon first hearing this claim, you'll most likely
think it to be ridiculous and absurd, but by the end of this
article, you'll see the utterly obvious truth of it, and you'll
never look at the world the same way again. Are you ready for it?
Here it is...

There is no cause of anything.

That's right. Nothing "causes" anything else to happen... ever.
Now let me explain why.

As an example, let's say that a man needs milk, and he walks
several blocks to the corner store to buy it. After purchasing
the milk he begins his walk home, but while crossing the street
there's a drunk driver that doesn't notice the stop sign at the
intersection where the man is crossing. At the very last second
the drunk driver slams on his breaks, but it's too late, and he
hits the man crossing the street.

Now, with our current mindset, the vast majority of people would
automatically say that the drunk driver "caused" this to happen.
Or did he?

If we just take a step back in the way we perceive things, we
could just as easily say that the man was hit by that drunk
driver because cars were invented. Or because the wheel was
invented. Or because of the development of technology. Or because
somebody figured out how to make pavement for driving on.

Maybe the man was hit because of his neediness for milk. Or
because his wife sent him to the store. Or because of his wife's
enjoyment of breakfast cereal. Maybe it's because people drink
milk. Or perhaps it happened because cows exist.

Maybe it happened because the man chose to live in the exact
location that he does. Or maybe it was because that was the only
house on the market that he could afford, and he could only
afford that house because of the job he has, and he has that job
because he dropped out of high school.

Maybe he was hit by the drunk driver because of the precise
speed in which the man walks, and the exact time he got there. Or
because he had to stop to re-tie his shoe lace that had come
undone. Or because he didn't tie them properly when he first left
his house. Or because he chose to wear that specific pair of
shoes to walk to the store. Or because he chose to buy those
exact shoes. Or because he could only afford those shoes.

Maybe it's because the city chose to install a stop sign instead
of traffic lights. Or because stop signs aren't twice as big. Or
because they're not fluorescent yellow.

What if the whole incident happened because the man decided to
walk to the store instead of driving? Or what if it was because
the store was built at that location? Or because the owner of the
store decided that was a good place to set up shop?

Perhaps it was because the drunk driver was born. Or because the
man buying milk was born. Or because either of the men's parents
had sex. Or because his parent's parents had sex. Or because any
of these people ever met each other in the first place.

What if it was because the human species evolved in the manner
that it did? Or because life came to be on the planet? Or maybe
it was because of the "big bang" (if that's how it happened).
Maybe it's because the physical universe exists.

It might have been because of the location of the bar that the
drunk driver was drinking at. Or because the drunk driver had to
be home at a certain time. Or because the drunk driver had to
work in the morning. Or because his taste buds like the taste of
alcohol. Or because he's not able to overcome his addiction
despite all of his efforts. Or because nobody has taken him to an
AA meeting.

The drunk driver may certainly be irresponsible, and maybe he
lacks proper judgment, but that certainly isn't "the cause". It's
only one tiny minute reason out of a literally infinite and
unending number of factors within all of existence. There is no
end to the amount of circumstances that come into play, and not a
single one of them is the cause of anything else.

So let us repeat the lesson learned... There is no cause of
anything... ever. There are only automatic effects and
consequences. Everything is happening of its own, as a
spontaneous result.

Most importantly of all, if there is no cause of anything, there
is nothing and nobody to blame for anything, and if there is
nothing to blame, then there is absolutely nothing to be angry
about. Everything just is what it is, and we have no choice but
to accept it. No matter what's happing in the universe, it's
perfect, and it can't possibly be anything but. This
understanding literally forces us to fully accept absolutely
everything as it is. There is nothing to complain about and we
have no choice but to forgive everybody for everything they have
ever done, no matter what that might have been.

What a person does, and chooses, is determined by what a person
is, and what they are is determined by what they are aware of.
Everybody is exactly what they are currently aware of, and what
they are currently aware of is based upon an infinite number of
factors.

We might all be learning from "mistakes", but at least we can
all be at peace (of mind) with each other as life unfolds. The
whole concept of causation is an entirely false ingrained
perception that is in everybody's best interest to let go of. If
everybody had this understanding, we would have total world peace
because nobody would be acting out of anger, blame, resentment,
hate, or fear. Everybody would fully accept, forgive, respect,
and love all of life for what it is. And we would no longer need
lawyers.
