Even Lazarus

At each
successive
instant of time,
each individual
is the end result
of every preceding
reciprocally
emergent moment
of conditionally
relative experience.
Thus each individual
is entirely
and solely
responsible for his
or her own
experiential
outworking;
for his or her own
accumulation
or dissipation
of karmic
attachments.
And any succor,
relief,
or benefit
accepted
from compassionate
others
heightens
the accountability
of the receiver.
Indeed,
by arising
from his deathbed,
even Lazarus
acquired
an increased
responsibility
for all subsequent
actions or nonactions.
