Each moves on a set course, clearly indicating that some powerful and omniscient Being is controlling it by His will. The taking to a separate course of action as a matter of human volition in this vast universe is a pointer to man’s deviation from total assimilation with the rest of the universe. The entire universe is in consistent progress and motion. None of the major orbiting bodies ever collide with each other. To indulge in conflict is a purely human characteristic. The entire universe, for all its incessant action, heads towards a positive goal. Man, on the contrary, opts for such courses of action as lead to chaos and destruction.

It is man who does not want to abide by any laws. Honey-bees accomplish their constructive work with exemplary discipline
