to me, this particular teaching doesn't come across as something a positive entity would teach.
They seem to be helpless because as long as they don't choose to be responsible for their thoughts and deeds, all events seem to happen to them rather than from them. There is a perpetual cycle of relative harmony/disharmony until this vicious circle is broken by effort to see the self and others honestly.
