Interpretation
One of the defining characteristics of this Universe is that often the ways of the Universe does not make sense to man
What appears to be a completely logical expectation does not play out in the manner man expects it to? Often, it plays out in a contradictory manner
Mankutimma, it is a very logical & fair expectation for you to have to expect that the ideologies, philosophy & thought process of the Creator & his creations to be the same. It is also fair for you to think that if He controls & influences everything here, why does he not influence my mind to be in tune with His? The answer is actually simple – how would you learn otherwise? How would you evolve?
