The Pot





This is one drop of delicious. 

It goes into the pot. 


This is one drop of rare purity. 

It goes into the pot.


This is one drop of exquisite experience. 

It goes into the pot.


This is one drop of perfection and this also goes into the pot.


This is three drops of harmony. 

In the pot, plop plop plop.


This is one of the most special potions. 


Now we will add five drops of luck, this particular luck being the very best available. 


These ingredients are very hard to come by. 



And now for the lesson.


This is one drop of deadly toxic corruption.  

This also goes into the pot. 


Now we will stir it. 


And now we will share it and drink it.


Why are you were stepping back away from the pot? Is the potion not good enough for you? Oh I see, the addition of deadly toxic corruption means it’s no longer safe and all those ingredients are wasted.


Now you understand why we do not blindly trust, why we test, why we filter for only the best. If we permit one drop of vice, one small lie, one impurity into our group, we no longer serve the purpose for which we deserve our position.


This is why groups form naturally in harmony with nature and need not tell any others who do not need to know. To force any such organisational structure is necessarily poison against the flow of evolutionary harmony.
