We richly deserve what we get. Suffering arises principally from selfish desire. It will cease when such desire ceases. The Law of Karma, of cause and effect, is a just and merciful law. But for it, man would be more and more of an animal. Because of it, man tends to be more and more divine. It is a law which makes for progress.
