JSR: Are the ones who suffer in this world more wicked than the ones who are happy? Have they done some crimes in the past for which they are being punished? Is the third world a hell world, and the developed world a blessed world?

Ezekiel: Those who steal Prana get the blessings of the Prana they steal, and those who give it away suffer the consequences of giving it away. Could a man really be called good if he suffered nothing by giving away all his Prana? The evolution from hell to heaven is slow; the ones born poor in this world have given away their right to riches that others may not suffer; the ones who have been born rich are in the process of taking all they can for themselves. It will be this way for a season, until the ones who are generous begin to be set with the generous, and the ones who are avaricious begin to be set among their like. Those whom all the world envies are on the descent, while those whom all the world does dishonor are on their way to the heavens. For we envy the types who have been able to get much in this world, for in this world each selfishly gets all he can for himself, all she can for herself. And so our heroes are the ones who have gotten more than us in this endeavor, and we look to the homeless and despise them. This is the teaching of the god Jesus and everything here is found in what he said. He was a messenger whose command was, "Give, and do for others what you would have done for you." And he also said prostitutes and drunkards would be marching into the heavens, while the ones the world honors would be locked outside. He did not say, "Do this because each will be set with his like," but merely, "Do what you would have others do for you." He wanted to keep the reasons for this mysterious, that people may do good from the goodness of their hearts.
