ϟ More on the Pain Body
When you realize that pain-bodies unconsciously seek more pain, that is to say, that they want something bad to happen, you will understand that many traffic accidents are caused by drivers whose pain-bodies are active at the time. When two drivers with active pain-bodies arrive at an intersection at the same time, the likely hood of an accident is many times greater than under normal circumstances. Unconsciously they both want the accident to happen. The role of pain-bodies in traffic accidents is most obvious in the phenomenon called “road rage,”when drivers become physically violent often over a trivial matter such as someone driving in front of them to slowly.
Many acts of violence are committed by “normal” people who temporarily turn into maniacs. All over the world at court proceedings you hear the defense lawyers say, “This is totally out of character,” and the accused, “I don’t know what came over me.” Some day a lawyer may say, “This is a case of diminished responsibility. My client’s pain-body was activated, and she did not know what she was doing. In fact, she didn’t do it. Her pain-body did.” (A New Earth 162,163)
