“A lei do karma determina que toda a ação tem uma reação. O karma
individual está entrelaçado ao karma coletivo, ou seja, as crises e
conflitos que vemos hoje no mundo são produto das nossas crises e
conflitos internos. Momentos como esse que estamos vivendo trazem lições
para todos nós. Mas não podemos esquecer de outra lei soberana: o livre
arbítrio. Foi através de nossas escolhas que chegamos e é através das
nossas escolhas que poderemos evoluir.”

"The law of karma states that every action has a reaction. Since the individual karma is intertwined with the collective karma, the crises and conflicts we see in the world today are the product of our internal crises and conflicts. Times such as these bring lessons for all of us. And we cannot forget another sovereign law: free will. It was through our choices that we got here and it is through our choices that we can evolve.”

Via Dialy Dharma: Unmarked by Drama
Our true nature is like the infinite sky, unmarked by whatever drama temporarily appears in its vast space.
