If men will not break away from what is bad in their past--as, for instance, the fear, suspicion, and distrust which develop between two races or two nations through their historic relationship--then Nature (that is, God, Life, call it as you like) will do it for them forcibly and violently through natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, climatic extremes, drought) or through merely presenting them with the fruits of their own thinking crystallized on the physical level--that is, with their karma in the form of war, revolution, and so on.
