UNIVERSAL AND INDIVIDUAL Carol, I agree with your Universal/Individual thing, what I am saying is that each individual has all of the universal in him, thus there is nothing that another individual can manifest that you can't grok, because the universal can grok anything it manifests. Thus being 'rigtheously surprised' for very long about what another does, either good or bad, is actually missing out on an opportunity to re integrate that misowned part of one self back into one's repertoire of ability, willingness and expectations. If one has an unwillingness about what other's are manifestating, that is an issue with you, not with them. If you continue the issue, and make your separation and unwillingness 'right', you will become monster food. The universal has no such unwillingness, and you will not take your own unwillingness back into the Universal when you decide to remerge. It is in fact necessary to eradicate all such unwillingnesses through humor and understanding in order to remerge with the Universal and attain enlightenment. There are no bad guys to the enlightened, only clowns.
