His career is now completely down the pan and all for an almost trivial offence ten years ago. He could have taken the far lighter consequences at the time but instead he just made the situation worse and worse. This reminds me of the Hindu story of the person who commits a trivial offence, who instead of taking the consequences at the time, made the situation worse and worse.

This is a perfect example of the Invisible Magic Friend's karma at work. As soon as he committed the speeding offence the outcome was inevitable, for the Gita roundly condemns speeding offences. When Arjuna's chariot exceeded the speed laid down by Krishna, Vishnu immediately sent him a choice of two paths. One was the path that returned to the straight and narrow and accepted three points on his chariot license. The other was the road to disaster, the downhill, out of control path to disgrace and having to resign his parliamentary seat.

As someone who has recently been required to go on a speed awareness course, I was able to inform the course instructor that even saints occasionally break the speed limit. After telling him what the Gita had to say about speeding offences, the instructor agreed with me that the wisdom of the Gita was superior to anything in the Road Traffic Act and went off to dress in saffron colour robes and become a Hindu.

Theologians have concluded that honesty is always the best policy, which is why there are so many rich theologians.
